This is a bad matchup for a weak UAB team that went 3-8 away from home. UAB got torched by Wisconsin (72-43), and lost by double digits to Florida, UCLA and North Carolina. Iowa State plays like North Carolina, up-tempo, and the Tar Heels flattened UAB, 89-58, with 44 rebounds, including 15 offensive ones. The Blazers are 1-4 ATS in NCAA Tournament games, plus 0-4 ATS in their last four non-conference games. Iowa State is loaded with offensive firepower inside and out, 14th in the nation in scoring and 11th in assists. The Cyclones are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 neutral site games, plus 6-0 ATS against Conference USA. Conference USA is really down this season and the Big 12 team will roll. Take Iowa State.
