11. Iowa State Cyclones (13-3)
Previous ranking: 13
This week: vs. Texas (Tuesday), at Oklahoma State (Saturday)
The Cyclones' six-game winning streak was snapped at Kansas on Saturday: a narrow two-point game the Cyclones had a shot to win at the buzzer, but couldn't. The loss certainly shouldn't change anyone's mind about how good this team is right now. And the recent performance of Gabe Kalscheur has made Iowa State more dangerous offensively. The former Minnesota transfer has hit double figures in seven of his past eight games, hitting clutch shots in multiple games, and totaled 48 points, 13 rebounds and nine 3s in two games alone this past week. In his past seven, Kalscheur is averaging 17.3 points and shooting 45.5% from 3.
