Under 71.  ISU defense has been able to keep teams under the avg per game and ISU has major QB issues and can't score consistently.

Tough call here. I interpret the line as just home field advantage and a night game. We all know Baylor's defense is the worst in the world, but can ISU really take advantage of it? Last 3 games, ISU is only averaging 23 ppg, while Baylor is allowing 58 ppg including that ridiculous WV game, or 49 ppg if you leave that one out and substitute LMU. 

Either way, I just don't see ISU's defense making enough stops, or their offense taking advantage of Baylor's atrocious D. All 3 of ISU's losses have come to teams with a top 10 scoring offense. Baylor is 3rd nationally.

Oh, almost forgot. ISU is in the midst of a QB controversy. Not good for late October. That doesn't bode well either.

ISU has no reason to be favored in this game, gimme Baylor on the ML.

BAYLOR ml $$$$$

Iowa's head coach has said when a team has put up 24 or more pts against them they are 3-22 and it's gonna take a miracle and 3 feet of snow for BAYLOR not to put up 24 pts or more

I will take Iowa St. simply because they are getting NO love on this board.  
Awful lot of Baylor confidence by everyone for such a small line.

ISU is favored by 2.5, Home field =3 points. 7 out of 10 times the underdog will cover this line.

Bears +2.5

  Not really, just balancing the board a bit.   Observed it seems like a large consensus on here usually goes down (ironically).

Congrats to the Cyclone backers and the Unders!  I was right on the defense part but still undecided on the QB situation.  I think part of Jantz performance was due to the horrible Baylor defense.
