Baylor Bears vs Iowa State Cyclones Predictions 12/31/2022

 

The Cyclones won two consecutive matches after their defeat to Iowa. They will look to maintain the momentum by defeating the Bears, which would be their third straight victory and the fifth in their previous six matches.

 

Iowa State scores 70.9 points per game on average. In their most recent game, they scored 73 points while hitting 63.3 percent of their field goals and 38.9 percent of their three-point attempts.

 

The Cyclones were led by Caleb Grill, who had 14 points and 6 rebounds. Tre King contributed 11 points and two rebounds, and Gabe Kalscheur ended with 11 points and three assists.

 

When it comes to defense, Iowa State was solid, allowing only 56.9 points per game. They need to maintain their performance if they wish to win after giving up 57 points in their previous encounter. Osun Osunniyi (Ankle) will not play in this match.

 

  • The Iowa State Cyclones are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 matches.

#12 Baylor Bears vs Iowa State Cyclones. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Iowa State Cyclones. The Cyclones triumphed in nine of their previous 11 contests and all seven of their home games.

 

They were effective offensively, particularly at home, where they average over 74 points per game and make over 48% of their attempts.

 

They are highly active on the offensive glass and do an excellent job locating the open guy, both of which will increase their chances of scoring.

 

They also perform a fantastic job of ball protection and don’t offer the Bears many chances to score easily.

 

Anticipate the Bears to struggle to slow down the Cyclones despite their strong defensive play at home, where they are allowing more than 75 points per game.

 

Although the Bears are also performing well, they were not as effective away from home. In their past 3 matches, they averaged less than 70 points per game due to offensive struggles.

 

However, they were reckless with the ball, especially on the road, which will be an issue against the Cyclones, who average more than 11 steals per game at home. Their rebounding was strong and will keep them in this game.

 

Expect the Cyclones to contain Baylor’s attack given that they limit opponents to under 50 points per game at home. In order to cover the spread, choose Iowa State. Iowa State will win to a predicted score of 68-64.
