Colorado vs Iowa State Prediction

I’ll probably lean towards the Buffaloes here. Still, it should be a really entertaining match to watch. Colorado got off to a slow start in the UConn game on Tuesday, but had an outstanding second half en route to an epic win. In the end, the Buffaloes shot 51.1 percent from the field and 56.3 percent (9 of 16) from 3-point range as well as a rebounding advantage of 34 to 28 (12 to 8 in.) in a great all-round game the offensive). It was a dramatic turnaround after shooting just 37 percent from the field and trailing 42-29 in rebounds against Michigan State. The only question is: Which Colorado team will we get in Wednesday’s game?

As for Iowa State, they shot a whopping 59.2 percent from the field against Dayton on Tuesday, but also shot pretty well overall (51.7 percent). The Cyclones’ real saving grace was 25 of 29 (86.2 percent) from the line – not to mention just six turnovers. Iowa State shouldn’t have too much trouble scoring points here; The Cyclones have scored 81 or more goals in every game so far. I like a high point total against Colorado in an entertaining game.
