Uncover the Hidden Underdogs Poised to Shake Up the Sweet Sixteen and Multiply Your Winnings!
Iowa State has been one of the highest ranked teams in the nation all season long. They’ve used a combination of both smart passing, tough defense, and lethal outside shooting to get them where they are. I am not nearly as high on Iowa State as some people are, but this has been a very talented team. They lost to Arizona in the Big 12 Championship, but it was a close one. They looked like they were stumbling near the end of the season, which is obviously not an ideal time to play your worst basketball. They went 6-5 over the 11 games before the NCAA Tournament. Against Tennessee State, they absolutely destroyed the team. They blitzed them and hit from basically everywhere. Then against Kentucky, it was more of the same as they won by 19. This one took a little longer for them to get going as they went into halftime with a one-point lead and then finally shook the Wildcats with a big second half. Mostly, though, it was their defense that got them back into the game. They were down by 10 for some of the first half and they couldn’t get the outside shot to fall. Once it started, and once they got the turnovers going, they never looked back.
