    NCAA HOOPS 12/12 Lets talk Iowa st +6.5

    Line is Iowa st +6.5 at Iowa. Iowa state star Dejean-jones suspended for game (avg 17ppg)
    I still think Iowa st a great play here. What's your thoughts?

    Dejean jones has been the glue keeping these cyclones together. Don't know who can step up in his place. That leaves Iowa state with forwards to score but Iowa has long defenders. Not a good matchup for cyclones on the road.

    I'm with Toretto on this one.

    I think Iowa has already played their share of ranked/tough teams, they are at home, and Iowa St. is missing their second highest scoring player... I just feel like this is not a good spot for Iowa St. Iowa wins and probably covers the number. (-5.5)

    I like Iowa St. Even though their 2nd leading scorer will be missing they still have 4 other players that average double digit points a game.

    Iowa state not a basketball school? Have you watched college basketball in the last 5 years? Iowa might pull out the win here, but it's going to be free throws. I'd take either team getting 6 points.

    Does anyone remember Baylor this week vs Texas AM....or Witchia State vs Utah on Dec 3rd. Same situation with injuries or players out and the better team covered. The public buys into these all the time. Only worry is a rivalry game but I'll take the plus points. Iowa state

    Honestly I think the side is too tough to call here. Not low enough to take Iowa but not high enough to take the points w Iowa St. either... can be close all game and then Iowa goes up by 4 w 30 seconds left and wins by 7 or 8 w free throws.

    But... how about the total? Does 143 seem maybe high, especially without BDJ?

    I liked the +6.5. It's down to 5.5. Don't like it as much. May take a pass on this

    Really interested to see how the total plays out. I'll be at the game and have been at everyone of Iowa's first home games. Last year they scored a lot in transition and played at a fast tempo but couldn't stop anyone. This year they've slowed the pace and struggled scoring at times, but have played very good defense. Curios to see if Iowa will want to slow the game down or try and match isu tempo
