Texas Tech vs. Iowa State Predictions

The Iowa State Cyclones have been nothing short of spectacular on their home court, boasting an unblemished 14-0 record that speaks volumes about their dominance at the James H. Hilton Coliseum. Their defense, ranked 5th nationally for points allowed, has been their cornerstone, and it’s hard to see the Texas Tech Red Raiders, despite their recent form, overcoming such a formidable barrier. The Cyclones’ ability to control the game’s tempo through Tamin Lipsey’s playmaking and Keshon Gilbert’s scoring will likely be the key factors in maintaining their home court advantage and securing another win in this matchup.

While Texas Tech has shown they can put up points, their road record of 2-4 indicates struggles away from home. Iowa State’s impressive against the spread (ATS) record of 17-7, including a stellar 12-3 at home, further cements their reliability in covering the spread and outright winning. Given these trends, the smart money is on the Cyclones to continue their winning ways at home, making the Iowa State Cyclones moneyline bet the prudent choice for this Big 12 showdown.

The Pick: Iowa State Cyclones -340 (Bet365)
