Iowa State Cyclones vs Lipscomb Bison Point Spread Picks

Iowa State slipped a bit down the stretch, losing four of its final seven games. Still, the Cyclones come from a tough Big 12 Conference and have four scorers averaging double figures. Curtis Jones scored 17.1 points per game, and he scored 31 against BYU in the conference tournament. The Cyclones will be without Keshon Gilbert, who has been in and out of the lineup with a groin injury. Still, Iowa State is one of the top defensive teams in the country, allowing 68.1 points per game and a .417 field goal percentage overall, .332 from 3-point range. The Cyclones have gone UNDER 15 of 20 games played in March dating to previous seasons, and nine of their past 11 Friday games have stayed UNDER. Lipscomb has gone UNDER four of its past five as an underdog, and the Bison are 12-4 UNDER on the road this season. Lipscomb comes into this game on a six-game win streak, but it was against Atlantic Sun competition, and it has covered the spread once in four games. Jacob Ognacevic is a dominant force inside, and Iowa State will need to key in on him as he averages 20.1 points. Take Iowa State and the UNDER.
