Colorado has a terrific offense, averaging 82.6 points behind the backcourt of Isaiah Johnson (16.2 ppg) and Barrington Hargress (14.2 ppg, 4.6 apg). They turn the basketball over just 9.9 times per game, while shootings 47.8% from the field, 36% from long range, and 77.2% from the line. They've lost five in a row, with their last seven defeats by 9, 7, 11, 9, 2, 5, and 9 points. During that stretch, they also knocked off Arizona State (95-89) as an underdog. After starting 16-0, Iowa State has split its last four, while on a 4-7 ATS run. The Cyclones have failed to cover their last four as a favorite of 17 or more. This is solid value. Play Colorado.
