Here, you will find the latest updates and predictions for this highly anticipated Baylor vs Iowa State matchup.
Baylor Struggling Mightily Going Into Saturday
This season has not gone well for the Baylor Bears, as they are 2-3 overall and 0-2 in Big Ten play. They have actually lost three games to Big 12 opponents already this year, but their loss to Utah was not counted as a conference game. Semantics aside, Baylor has struggled of late, losing three of their last four contests. Their defense has been a concern in recent outings, as they have allowed 36 points per game over their last two games against BYU and Colorado.
Can Iowa State Continue Historic Start?
Iowa State has won four straight games to open its season, including its Big 12 opener against Houston in their last outing. The Cyclones have been elite defensively to start the year, giving up 7.25 points per game through their first four contests. And while some of that has had to do with the lackluster schedule they have played outside of their rivalry game against Iowa, the Cyclones also deserve a ton of credit for how they have fared on that side of the ball. Here against Baylor, the Cyclones will once again be expected to win the day on defense.
Baylor vs Iowa State Betting Pick
Our best bet for Baylor vs Iowa State is for the Iowa State Cyclones to cover the spread as a home favorite. Iowa State should continue to dominate on the defensive side of the ball here against a Baylor team that struggled to move the ball against their only decent opponent on the road this year in Utah. Look for the Cyclones to win this game by around two touchdowns as they continue to inch closer to a top-10 ranking.
