Prior to the babyboomers having babies in earnest, the colleges knew that there was a tremendous opportunity to capture market share. Ad agencies were hired, fired, mixed, and voila - the superstar, supersized campus evolved. The image became the reality, a concept not only taught in advertising 101 but from what I can vaguely recall, intro to poly sci.
Before the game, however, the partisan Buckeye crowd made plenty of noise. More than 20 minutes before tip-off, the familiar "O-H! I-O!" chant reverberated throughout the arena. The crowd was a sea of red, although some of that was from leftover Louisville fans and Dayton fans wearing their colors. Unfortunately, for the Buckeyes, Siena's Ronald Moore made a three-pointer with 3.9 seconds left in double overtime to end Ohio State's season with a 74-72 defeat in a first-round Midwest Regional game.
