What to Know
The #10 Texas Longhorns have enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they must head out on the road. The Longhorns and the #14 Iowa State Cyclones will face off in a Big 12 battle at 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday at James H. Hilton Coliseum. The teams split their matchups last year, with Iowa State winning the first 79-70 at home and Texas taking the second 63-41.
The Texas Tech Red Raiders typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday Texas proved too difficult a challenge. Texas skirted past Texas Tech 72-70. Texas can attribute much of their success to guard Sir’Jabari Rice, who had 18 points.
Speaking of close games: it was close but no cigar for the Cyclones as they fell 62-60 to the Kansas Jayhawks this past Saturday. Guard Gabe Kalscheur put forth a good effort for the losing side as he had 23 points along with six boards.
The Longhorns are now 15-2 while Iowa State sits at 13-3. A pair of stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Texas ranks 22nd in college basketball when it comes to takeaways, with 17.1 on average. But Iowa State is even better: they come into the contest boasting the third most takeaways per game in college basketball at 19.4. We’ll see if that edge gives Iowa State a route to victory.
