Baylor vs Iowa State Preview

Baylor is off to an 8-0 start, with all of their victories coming by double digits this season. The Bears rank fourth in the nation in points per game at 95 and first in assists with 22.1. Baylor is allowing just 62.3 points.

“Very seldom do you have a team that you win by the margins that we’ve won, and consistently won,” Baylor coach Scott Drew said. “Sometimes with teams, you’ll get up by 15 or 20 and then let the other team come back and it’s a 10 or 12-point game. We’ve really done a phenomenal job of building on leads and putting teams away and not allowing them to get back into games.”

Baylor’s latest win was a 105-76 thumping of Alcorn State. MaCio Teague currently leads the Bears with 16.2 points per game. Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua is snatching 7.8 rebounds to lead Baylor.

Drew is expecting a tough test against a conference opponent in Iowa State.

“I think Iowa State is one of those teams like Kansas State had a lot of transition, had a lot of new pieces,” Drew said. “Without the summertime, without the scrimmages, there are teams that are going to continue to get better the more they play together. You look at Iowa State, they’ve got a lot of talented players, they’ve got a great coach (Steve Prohm). I think against West Virginia, they showed what they’re capable of.”

After four consecutive losses, Iowa State turned it around against Jackson State last time out, riding a big second half to the 60-45 win. Baylor, the No. 2 ranked team in the nation, will be an entirely different test.

“You know, they’re good, they’re definitely good,” Iowa State junior guard Rasir Bolton said. “(They’re) No. 2 in the country for a reason so we just gotta come out and be ready to play.”

Bolton is leading the Cyclones with 15.7 points per game, also registering 5.5 assists. Solomon Young is the top rebound-getter for Iowa State, hauling in 5.3 per game. Young is also registering 1.2 blocks.

Baylor is a massive 15-point favorite for the matchup. The total is 148.5 points. Baylor is 7-1 against the spread in their last eight games.
