Matchup Breakdown
Iowa State Outlook
Iowa State averages 79.6 points per game, with Joshua Jefferson, Tamin Lipsey, and Milan Momcilovic leading the offense. Jefferson’s double-double vs Baylor (19 points, 17 rebounds) highlighted his impact, while Lipsey’s playmaking (14.8 ppg, 5.6 apg) adds balance. Their defensive intensity and ability to adjust at halftime have fueled their unbeaten run. Their 15-0 overall record and 2-0 Big 12 mark underscore dominance.
Oklahoma State Outlook
Oklahoma State averages 77.4 points per game, with Parsa Fallah, Kanye Clary, and Christian Coleman providing scoring depth. Fallah’s 24 points vs UCF and Clary’s breakout (18 points, 9 rebounds, 8 assists) highlight offensive potential. Their 13-2 overall record and 1-1 Big 12 mark underscore competitiveness, though defensive lapses against Texas Tech showed vulnerability. Coleman’s status (flu) remains key for their frontcourt presence.
Key Matchup / Path to Victory
