9pm - Texas at Iowa State -5 O/U 141.5
The Longhorns (14-5, 3-3 Big 12) lost 75-62 to Kansas on Saturday after 2 straight wins. Texas has the size advantage, as they do just about every game, but will they take advantage of it? G Isaiah Taylor is their leading scorer, but assists to big men Ridley, Turner and Holmes is what will earn them a chance to win and it will be tough going in Ames.
The Cyclones (14-4, 4-2) lost 78-73 at Texas Tech on Saturday after 2 straight wins themselves. F Georges Niang leads 5 players averaging double figures in points and one other just shy of that number. G Monte Morris is the orchestrator of their potent offense and they should put up the 80 points they average as a team tonight.
I think Iowa State win at home where they are 10-0 this season. It will be a hard fought conference game, but the up-tempo Cyclones should be able to pull away late and cover.
Iowa State 80 Texas 70
