Iowa State’s 29-game home winning streak has come to an end, and Kansas blew its biggest lead in program history on Saturday. No. 8 Iowa State will face off against No. 16 Kansas on Monday night in a highly anticipated matchup. The Cyclones previously dominated Kansas, but have since suffered consecutive losses and are looking to bounce back. Senior guard Curtis Jones, despite a recent shooting slump, has been a standout player this season. Iowa State excels at getting to the free-throw line but has struggled with turnovers and shooting accuracy as of late.
On the other hand, Kansas is going through a rough patch as well, with a recent historic collapse against Baylor. The team has shown flashes of talent, but inconsistency has been a challenge. Senior Zeke Mayo and big man Hunter Dickinson are key players to watch for the Jayhawks. Kansas holds a significant lead in the all-time series against Iowa State and has a strong record at home in the Phog.
Despite recent struggles, both teams have the potential to deliver an exciting and competitive game on Monday night. Fans can watch the matchup to see which team will come out on top and regain momentum in the season.
