Kansas vs. Iowa State CBB Prediction:
Kansas looks to win consecutive games, while Iowa State is in search of their third straight victory.
Give me the Jayhawks. I know Iowa State is awesome at home, but I’ll gladly take the Jayhawks getting a couple of points. Johnny Furphy has emerged as an additional scoring threat for Kansas and I think they do enough to keep this game close, if not pull a big road victory. This game comes down to the final couple of possessions either way, take the points.
