BYU Cougars vs. Iowa State Cyclones

There is a huge conference game in the Big 12 set to take place on Wednesday night, and that has been the case all season long. The BYU Cougars are set to visit the Iowa State Cyclones on Wednesday night for what will be a massive game. 

BYU is coming into this game with an overall record of 21-8, and they have had a successful first season in the Big 12 Conference. The Cougars have won three of their last four games, and that will give them some momentum ahead of this game. 

Iowa State has moved all the way up to number six in the most recent rankings, and they look like a team that will go on a run in March. The Cyclones have improved to 23-6 on the year, and they have been nearly unbeatable at home.

The Iowa State Cyclones are coming into this game as 6.5-point betting favorites and the over/under line is set at 146.5 total points. 

Cougars Want to Score

The BYU Cougars have emerged as one of the best offensive teams in the Big 12 Conference this season as they are scoring over 82 points per game. BYU is shooting just 46 percent from the floor, but they have been able to push the tempo this season. 

Jaxson Robinson has been the best offensive weapon on this team as he is scoring 13.9 points per game to set the tone. Robinson will need to lead the way for the Cougars, but other players will need to step up as well. 

Not only has BYU been a great offensive team this season, but they have also held opponents to 69 points per game. 

Cyclones Can Get Stops

The Iowa State Cyclones have some great offensive weapons this season, but they have set the tone on defense all season long. Iowa State is holding teams to just 61.9 points per game, and they have faced some great teams along the way. 

This doesn’t mean that Iowa State has been playing at a slow place this season as they are willing to push the tempo when the opportunity is there. Iowa State is scoring 76.6 points per game this season, and they can really shoot the basketball.

Guard Keshon Gilbert is likely going to be named to the All-Conference team at the end of the season as he has scored 13.8 points per game. It will take a great game from Gilbert to set the tone for Iowa State. 

Cyclones Come Up With Big Win

BYU is coming into this game with some momentum, but they just haven’t played well on the road at times this season. The Cougars can really score the basketball, but they are going to have a tough time against Iowa State in this game. 

Iowa State will set the tone on defense in this game and that has been their calling card all season long. The Cyclones have also been able to come up with some big plays when needed, and they will shoot their way to a big win. 

Bet the Iowa State Cyclones -6.5 as they are going to take care of business on their home floor and come up with a massive win.
