The Iowa State Cyclones remain as one of a handful of teams still unbeaten in college basketball to start the 2013-14 season. Iowa State is 9-0, and they have done so by committing to the defensive end of the floor where they have held six of their nine opponents to 70 points or less. Akron is still talented, but the Zips lost three of their top five scorers from a year ago, and have been forced to slow things down from the pace they set a year ago. The Zips have held six of eight opponents to 71 or less, and this one does not look to get into the 150s. The Zips have played to a 15-7-1 mark to the UNDER in their last 23 following a straight up win, and overall they have played seven of their last 10 UNDER the total. Make the play on the UNDER.
