This is a mismatch in talent and pace where Iowa State will overpower VCU who only have a decent defense. They will be outmatched in this game and once Iowa State goes ahead on the scoreboard, they will be left behind. The Cyclones just have too much firepower.

Iowa State are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games. Iowa State are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games played in November. VCU are 1-5 SU in their last 6 games against an opponent in the Big 12 conference.
