Baylor (13-0) takes on Iowa State (9-3) at 7:00 on Wednesday at the Ferrell Center. Baylor once again seems to be a major matchup problem for the Cyclones. But in the Big 12, anything can happen.
The Cyclones are a different team without Georges Niang. Iowa State’s offense is worse without the talented big man. Iowa State has made up for Niang’s loss by improving their defense, which currently ranks #19 on KenPom.
But as strong as Iowa State’s defense has become, Baylor has a huge frontcourt advantage against Iowa State. Baylor won in Ames last season behind a 27 point effort from Johnathan Motley.
