Lipscomb vs Iowa State

Iowa State’s top guard has been relentlessly pouring in points, fueling a decent run for Iowa into the NCAA tournament that looms large for its postseason chances despite facing a scrappy Lipscomb squad that comes in on six straight wins. Historically, Iowa State’s leading scorer has shown a knack for draining clutch shots against Lipscomb, giving the home team a tangible edge. Given both teams are in the national championship tournament, every victory impacts their postseason trajectory, making the Cyclones’ potent offense a safer pick for a moderate return on investment.

Lipscomb’s explosive backcourt, on a six-game winning streak despite a 14-4-25-9 record, looks poised to keep the pace furious against Iowa State, who recently dropped their last game in a tough 13-7-24-9 campaign. Both teams’ key playmakers have shown the ability to trade buckets early and often, suggesting a higher-scoring clash than usual. Expect the total to stretch beyond 142.5 as the offenses light up the court. This prediction receives a B+ given its strong likelihood of success and the appealing payoff it offers for bettors.

Curtis Jones has ignited Iowa State’s offense during a decent run into the NCAA tournament,. The Bison, bolstered by a six game run, are still rolling with their top scorers healthy and eager to impress after underperforming in only a handful of outings against notable Big 12 squads. While Iowa State stands out at home, Lipscomb’s past road covers in conference arenas suggest they can battle until the final buzzer. This bet earns a B+ for its medium potential payout and a strong likelihood of beating the odds.
