Iowa State at Iowa

The Iowa Sate. Cyclones will put their #13 ranking on the line when they travel to Iowa for a big in-state rivalry game. The Cyclones lost last year in the NCAA Tournament to eventual champion UConn, and have had just one big test on a neutral court vs. Maryland, where they suffered their only loss of the season. The Cyclones have feasted on a lot of home cooking early, as this will be their first road game of the year, but the Hawkeyes are 7-0 at home. Iowa will be out to revenge a 3-point loss at Iowa State from last season. This is a tough spot for the Cyclones as they have not played a true road game all season, and they had a better team a season ago, but that team was just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games. Iowa has been a strong momentum team as the Hawkeyes have delivered a 31-14 ATS mark in their last 45 following a win. Lay the points on Iowa.
