I don't have a lot of time this morning but I wanted to get this updated.
As noted before, Iowa State has good numbers, and it is starting to look like the Clone can stand behind those numbers when they really need to. Kansas was an exclamation point, and our game against OSU is supportive of a good Iowa State team, but it still too soon to know if that is truly sustainable or not. Or, is it is just the start of something better, which the trends suggest is very possible.
Baylor is an inconsistent team, and has a couple of decent wins, Oregon and Arizona. But they also have some embarrassing losses.
I have this as a three point game (good guys) , but Iowa State is playing above their rating, suggesting that that may be conservative. Still, it is a conference road game that once again is well within the toss-up range.
(In my opinion.)
I will try to have more analysis later if I get the chance.
