A Big 12 battle between two ranked teams is set to go down on Tuesday night when the No. 23 Iowa State Cyclones head to Texas to take on the No. 8 ranked Longhorns.
Despite beating Texas at home by a final score of 78-67 earlier this season, Iowa State finds itself set as a significant underdog in the rematch.
How should we treat that? Let’s dive into it.
Iowa State vs. Texas odds, spread, and total
Iowa State vs. Texas prediction and pick
Iowa State has had a lot of offensive troubles on the road this season and I expect that to continue tonight. Its effective field goal percentage drops 6.3% away from their home court. Meanwhile, the Longhorns shoot 7.4% better at home than on the road.
Also, expect Texas to force plenty of turnovers tonight. Texas ranks 24th in opponent turnovers per possession, and now it faces an Iowa State team that ranks 255th in turnovers per possession, coughing up the ball on 19% of possessions overall and 20.4% of possessions on the road.
I’m willing to lay the number with the Longhorns here.
