Kansas State vs Iowa State Betting Pick
With their comeback win over Texas on Wednesday, the Wildcats kept their NCAA Tournament hopes alive. But can they beat the Cyclones twice in a week to move on?
Last weekend, K-State beat Iowa State at Bramlage. The Cyclones were only able to shoot 43.1%, including just 5 of 17 shots from long range, which is 29.4%.
They also didn’t shoot well (40.7 FG% and 29.2 3PT%), but they did score 20 points when Iowa State made a mistake.
It was enough on Saturday, but I don’t think the Cats will be able to get past another bad shooting night on Thursday to move on.
Still, Iowa State’s offense isn’t very good—their true shooting percentage is 131st in the country. It made a lot of free throws in the first game between these two teams, but it isn’t steady at the line (69.0 FT%).
I don’t think the Cyclones will win by enough to cover as long as the Wildcats don’t get too many free throws.
Tomorrow, K-State will likely score more points at T-Mobile Center because of the crowd energy. The Wildcats need to win this game and cover the spread.
