Texas vs. Iowa State Prediction, Odds, Lines, Picks, and Preview- January 17 | 2023 NCAA Basketball Regular Season

The Texas Longhorns travel to Aimes, Iowa, to take on the Iowa State Cyclones in one of the most highly-anticipated Big XII contests we have had in a while. The Longhorns have been red-hot, winning nine of their last 10 games, standing at 15-2. Iowa State is just as hot as Texas. The Cyclones would have had seven straight had they been able to pull off an upset over the Kansas Jayhawks, which they eventually lost 62-60. These are two top ten-level teams, and they are not only competing for a Big XII title, but they are setting themselves up nicely for a run in March Madness. Who will be victorious on Tuesday night, the charging Longhorns or the whirlwind Cyclones?
