It is too bad he is simultaneously in the doghouse and a 100% confirmed bust.
Is that why he never gets in games. From what I have seen him play, he just doesn't look like he belongs on the court. Doesn't move great or defend great. Pretty small sample size. I assumed he was just a little banged up.

10%? Stop. This is college basketball. They would probably have better than a 10% chance of beating the best team in the country on the road.

Yeah, probably a bit of hyperbole there. But Scott Drew's Baylor teams have just been a squad that we just haven't been able to figure out. Perhaps now that we have an interior presence, that'll change. But I'll need to see it.

Until then, I'm taking Baylor +4.5 @ +134. Hopefully it's lost money.

You want to bet Baylor based on trends that's fine, but I think most handicappers wouldn't touch this game. Way too many unknown variables going on.

Baylor has not been playing well. I would say the line is about right.

Throw out the Iowa game and we would probably be favored. No reason ISU can't beat Baylor at home. Line should be a toss up.

Don't love that we have been off for so long. Worried we might have a pretty slow/rusty start.

Am I missing something or is Vegas giving away money again? While sure, ISU can win this game, but with Jaz out and our struggles against Baylor I don't see this as a game I'd expect us to win. Maybe a 10% chance or so?
Never too late to get on the TJ wagon.

The house always wins.
