Iowa State at Cincinnati

Iowa State has a new coach and comes off their first slip-up, losing 81-79 at Northern Iowa as -7 chalk. The Cyclones trailed by as many as 11 points in the second half against Northern Iowa before rallying. This is their first true road game of the season and a tougher matchup. Opponents of the University of Cincinnati basketball team have been held to fewer than 70 points in 47 of the last 50 games the Bearcats have played, including last Saturday’s 69-63 win at Virginia Commonwealth. The Bearcats squad prides itself on dominant defense, limiting opponents to just 59.4 points per game which ranks #12 nationally, so look for a win by the home team. Take Cincinnati on the moneyline.
