Iowa State vs Baylor Prediction
Baylor is coming off a couple of nice wins, but nothing with this team this season has been consistent. Iowa State is one of the best teams in the country and has blown teams off the floor at home. Iowa State is a profitable 14-8 ATS on the season. Iowa State has won 6 of the last 7 games against Baylor and has covered each of the last 10 meetings. It’s a thick line, but for good reason. When Iowa State plays to its potential, there’s not much Baylor can do. I’ll lay the buckets.
