Texas at Iowa State picks and predictions

Prediction

Iowa State 72, Texas 67

Moneyline

PASS on the moneyline and focus on the value with the spread and total.

Against the spread

IOWA STATE -2.5 (-115) is an intriguing wager with how well the Cyclones just played a talented Kansas team in their most recent game. Iowa State is a perfect 9-0 at home this season and we only need it to win by at least 3 points Tuesday.

The Longhorns are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games while the Cyclones are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games. The home team is also 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings between these 2 programs.

Over/Under

I almost feel obligated to take OVER 131.5 (-105) in this Big 12 showdown. Even though Iowa State has a stellar defense that is limiting teams to 57.9 points per game, I expect enough scoring to hit the Over Tuesday.

Texas has gone 8-0-1 to the Over in its last 9 games following a win and 7-1-1 to the Over in its last 9 games overall. This total has also hit in 6 of the last 7 meetings between the Longhorns and Cyclones.

Texas at Iowa State odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Iowa State 34, Texas 29

Money line

Iowa State (-250) will cost you two-and-a-half times your potential return, and that’s not a recommended play. Neither of these teams are worth trusting on the money line at the moment.

AVOID.

Against the spread

TEXAS +6.5 (-107) is worth a look in this battle between mediocre teams. The Longhorns are looking to snap a three-game skid, while the Cyclones are 3-1 SU across the past four, but just 3-5 ATS overall. That includes a 1-3 ATS mark in four games at home. Back the ‘Horns lightly as the road ‘dogs.

Over/Under

OVER 58.5 (-120) is the lean. Iowa State has hit the Over in four of the past five games overall. While the Under is 3-1 in the previous four overall for Texas, it has allowed 31 or more points in each of the past three. We’re going to see plenty of scoring at Jack Trice.

Texas at Iowa State : Three things to know

  1. Winless-in-the-league Iowa State played the Longhorns tough when these two teams met Jan. 5 in Austin, Texas. UT won that game, 78-72, despite being out-rebounded by the Cyclones, 39-28. Six of ISU’s 15 conference losses have been by a two-possession margin or less.
  2. Texas was felled 68-59 by Texas Tech Saturday. The loss marked the Longhorns’ second this season against the Red Raiders, and it sank UT’s record since Jan. 14 to 4-6. Texas shot just 34.7% from the field Saturday, and the ‘Horns have shot just 36.4 over their last two games.
  3. The Longhorns are a solid rebounding team adept at turning offensive boards into second-chance points. Iowa State has yielded 10.9 offensive rebounds per game on the season. That figure is even higher (11.6) over the Cyclones’ last seven games.

Against the spread (ATS)

ISU figures to have the Longhorns’ full attention in this rematch. And Texas is much the better team on both sides of the ball. Better by about 10-12 points. PASS.

Over/Under (O/U)

The Over is 6-0 in the Longhorns’ last six games against sub-.400 foes. And the Over is 10-3 in Iowa State’s last 13 games overall.

Both teams play at slightly above-average tempo. Texas is coming off a slower-pace loss and may be contest to wedge in a few more possessions in this one. BACK THE OVER 142.5 (-110) on a slight lean.
