Ohio State vs. Wichita State LIVE UPDATES: Elite Eight Matchup In West Region

Wichita State better hope its Elite Eight matchup with Ohio State doesn't come down to the final seconds. The Buckeyes have already had plenty of practice -- and success -- in those situations already.

No. 2 Ohio State reached the final of the West Region thanks to a pair of late game-winning shots. Aaron Craft sank Iowa State in the Round of 32. LaQuinton Ross sent Arizona home in the Sweet 16.

In the wildest region of the bracket, Thad Matta's team faces the Shockers of Wichita State with a spot in the Final Four up for grabs. No. 9 Wichita State shocked No. 1 Gonzaga in the third round and then overwhelmed No. 13 La Salle in the Sweet 16.

"We have to go out there and play our hearts out," Cleanthony Early of Wichita State said ahead of the game, via The Associated Press. "So regardless if their facilities are a little bit bigger than ours, they've got to lace up their shoes just like us."

In addition to playing their hearts out, Early and the physical Shockers will need to figure out to contain Deshaun Thomas. Can this No. 9 seed score another upset and reach Atlanta?
