St. John’s Red Storm vs. Iowa State Cyclones Prediction
I’m on Iowa State here. I get the case to be made for St. John’s as the Red Storm have a potent team that can make a tournament run in March. However, Iowa State is no joke either and they slapped around Mississippi State in their lone step up game so far this season. We’ve also seen the Cyclones post the perfect balance of offense and defense under Otzelberger. I’ll roll with Iowa State here.
