Coming off of their tough loss @ 'Cuse, the Hoyas bounced back with a quality win at home vs. Duke. I expect them to play well and cover versus the Bulls of USF. Looking at their track record at home so far this year against conference opponents, they are winning comfortably each time against the likes of Seton Hall, Rutgers, DePaul, etc. Expect a 15-23 point win here. Hoyas -12.5 over USF.
Predicted Score: Hoyas 82 - Bulls 63
Craig Brackens is a solid player but Iowa State's season is truly a mess. Their point guard, Lucca Staiger, left the team in mid January in favor of playing in Europe. This left the Cyclones short handed entering the thick of Big 12 play. On the other side of this contest, Baylor is riding high after downing Texas on the road. Ekpe Udoh's shot blocking ability gives Baylor's guards the chance to overplay angles knowing that opponents can't waltz to the basket if they get past them off the dribble. Look for Baylor to cruise at home beyond a big night from Lace and Tweety.Bears -11 over Cyclones.
Predicted Score: Bears 77 - Cyclones 63
