The Cincinnati Bearcats are on a three-game winning streak following a loss to Rhode Island, which was ranked No. 21 at the time, in the Naismith Hall of Fame Tip-Off. Although UC’s first battle with a Top 25 team did not go as planned, the Bearcats will hope to bounce back against No. 19 Iowa State, a team known for its offensive power. Mick Cronin will have to have his team ready for battle if the ‘Cats want to bottle up the Cyclone’s attack.
