No. 7 Texas vs. No. 12 Iowa State Preview and Predictions
A top 15 Big 12 basketball matchup will take place Tuesday between No. 7 Texas and Number. 12 Iowa State.
Each team enters this important conference game on a bit hot streak.
Texas is currently riding a three-game winning streak, with a few comeback wins. Since Rodney Terry assumed the role of acting head coach in December, Texas is 8-1.
Iowa State won six of the last seven. They lost to Kansas on the road. After a 4-1 start in Big 12 play, the Cyclones have risen up the rankings.
Texas has been in trouble lately because of its sloppy first-half play. This hostile environment demands that the Horns perform better.
Tyrese Hunter, a Texas guard, will be returning to Ames for his first time since his transfer. Hunter was the Big 12 Freshman Of The Year at Iowa State, before he opted to transfer through the portal.
