Iowa State comes back home after a big road win against the 23rd ranked Oklahoma Sooners to a date with the TCU Horned Frogs. It’s been a tremendous start to the season for coach Fennelly and the Cyclones as they’d reached a record of 13-1 and have hung around 12th in the rankings much of the year. Looking to hit 3-0 in the conference, the Hilton crowd was right back in form to bring that little extra energy before a big 2-game road stretch.
Unlike most games, the Cyclones got off to a really hot start. The Cyclones started 4 of 6 from the floor adding a pair of free throws in the first 5 and a half minutes to jump out to a 13-4 lead.
