In their last games Iowa State beat West Virginia 74-72 and Baylor beat TCU 65-69 in OT.

Iowa State beat a ranked team in their last game and tonight face 22nd ranked Baylor in their house before facing 9th ranked Kansas. Baylor snapped their 2-game winning streak with a win in their last game and while they are the 2-point betting favorite tonight they are 0-2 on the season facing top 25 teams.

7 of the teams in the Big 12 are ranked, which means every conference game is vital.

Baylor is only 1-2 in conference play and they needed OT to beat TCU in their last game to avoid going 0-3.

Baylor has a solid defense and they will be tested tonight by an Iowa State team that ranks 15th in the nation in scoring.

While Iowa State is 5-1 in their last 6 games against Baylor they are only 2-9 in their last 11 road games facing them.

Iowa State has a balanced team with 5 players averaging in double figures and they have one of the best benches in the conference as well. Georges Niang leads the team in scoring and he is coming off a 16-point game in the win over West Virginia.

Rico Gathers is one of 4 players averaging in double figures for the Bears and is coming off a monster game where he had 18 points and 17 boards. He and Taurean Prince, who is the leading scorer, are a solid FW tandem and the Cyclones have to play well on these guys and not let them dominate the paint.

Baylor has to play much better than they did in the narrow win over TCU where they only shot 29.8%.
