Oklahoma basketball: Sooner Magic meets Hilton Magic

In Ames, Iowa, its all about Hilton Magic, at least that’s what Iowa State students and fans attribute to why the Cyclones are so difficult to knock off on their home hardwood.

Over the last seven seasons, Iowa State has won 119 games, a .647 winning percentage, but the Cyclones have been lethal against Oklahoma on their home floor. The Sooners have lost their last seven visits to Hilton Coliseum. They lost by just three points a year ago, but the six times before that OU’s average losing margin was 10 points.

Iowa State is seven up and seven down through 14 games this season, including 0-2 in the Big 12.
