The home team has won 20 of the 22 all-time regular season meetings in the series. Baylor is 71-16 at home since 2009-10, posting an .816 winning percentage. Iowa State is off a loss at Kansas State and now must hit the road again.

ISU is a dichotomous spread and straight up team. This means if a team is consistently winning outright but failing to cover or losing outright and covering, we ride the spread streak. This has proven to be a way to isolate over and undervalued teams.

Despite a 22-6 straight up mark, they are 3-11 their last 14 where it counts. They are 1-6 against the spread their last seven on the road.
