Vegas never gets this spread right! This will be a blowout...I'm from Iowa....This ISU team has a chance to win the big 12
10* -- Iowa State -3.5 (-120)
Drake has no one that can play with Royce White.
STAT LEADERS: For Iowa State – Royce White 25.0 ppg, 11.0 rpg, Chris Babb 5.0 apg; for Drake – Aaron Hawley 23.0 ppg, Jordan Clarke 8.0 rpg, Jeremy Jeffers and Karl Madison 2.0 apg.
ABOUT THE CYCLONES: White, Babb and Chris Allen were three starters making their Iowa State debut in Saturday’s win over Lehigh. They combined for 45 points, and the team made 10 3-pointers.
ABOUT THE BULLDOGS: Will get Kurt Alexander and Rayvonte Rice back from suspension, and could use that added depth against their first Division I opponent of the season. Hawley and Jeffers will look to provide a spark off the bench.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: How will Drake contend with the 6-foot-8, 270-pound White inside? Clarke and Kraidon Woods will have to stay out of foul trouble and try to keep him off the boards while the rest of the team focuses on a quarter of strong outside shooters for Iowa State.

I think Iowa State has almost no shot at the Big 12 but I think they win DD in this game. I have them very large. Here a write-up from NoC:
"I've watched both teams play, and while Rayvonte Rice of Drake will
arguably be the best player on the court tonight, it's going to take
some heavy-duty rigging for Drake to win this game. The Bulldogs simply
do not match up with ISU's athleticism. Royce White should have a field
day for the Clones.
I don't understand this line movement at all, but I'm ignoring it.
There's a reason ISU absolutely buried this team last year.
Drake will have to shoot some absurd % from deep to win this game. I
like Rice a lot, but he can't do it by himself. The Simons kid is a
decent player and a few of their newcomers are OK, but like you said,
White should go nuts in the paint.
ISU has a lot of new faces, and their lack of a true PG does concern me,
but do you think guys like Allen and Babb, who have played in Big Ten
venues like the Kohl Center and Mackey Arena, will be intimidated by the
Knapp Center? No chance.
I hit ISU up big when they were a short fave at Drake a few years ago,
and I'm doing the same tonight. I have over 20 units tied up in this
game, and I'm not flinching. It's my biggest play in any sport ever.:

Worth a shot I guess. Middles are hard to hit and if the Cyclones win it will more than likely be by DD. Anything can happen though but I think them a lot tonight.
