Getting Up to Speed

Recap: Baylor Beats Iowa State in Overtime - The Cyclones fell to Baylor in yet another overtime game on the road.

We're Talking TCU - Iowa State is a perfect 7-0 against the Horned Frogs since TCU joined the Big 12.

TCU-Iowa St. Preview - Steve Prohm wants his team to get more stops and make their free throws to secure more victories.

Prediction

This game is technically the easiest on paper in the conference season for Iowa State. Now 2-3 in their last five games, ISU enters the home stretch of the season playing underwhelming basketball. A good performance today would hopefully provide some confidence heading toward Big 12 Tourney and NCAA Tournament play.

I think the Cyclones lead by about 15 points for most of the game today and come away with the win.
