Iowa State Looking to Remain Perfect
Going into Saturday's Iowa State vs Houston matchup, the Iowa State Cyclones are 3-0 and ranked 18th in the country. The Cyclones have a road win over rivals Iowa under their belt already this year, along with wins over Arkansas State and North Dakota. Here, the Cyclones will look for a fourth straight win, one that could potentially move them into the top-15 in the country if they are impressive enough. Iowa State's defense will have the spotlight on them in this game given the offensive issues that Houston has had this year, as the Cyclones will be expected to shut down a team that appears to be one of the worst in the Big 12.
Houston Anything But Perfect Early On
Houston is off to a 1-3 start this season and an 0-1 start in Big 12 play. That Big 12 loss came last week when the Cougars were beaten 34-0 by Cincinnati on the road, with Houston losing the turnover battle 3-0 in that matchup. Outside of their win over lowly Rice, Houston has averaged just 6.3 points per game in their three games against UNLV, Oklahoma, and Cincinnati. That doesn't bode well going into this contest against an Iowa State team that has proven that it can play defense at a higher level than Iowa already this season.
Iowa State vs Houston Best Bet
After seeing how Houston has performed on offense against all power conference competition they have faced this season, it is hard to see them improving in any meaningful way on that side of the ball in this Iowa State vs Houston matchup. We will lay the points with Iowa State here, as the Cougars should once again have trouble putting points on the board. As long as Iowa State scores into the 20s in this game, they should have a real shot to cover this big point spread.
