The ninth ranked Iowa State men return to the road in Big 12 play on Saturday with a visit to Oklahoma State. The Cyclones bounced back from road losses to Kansas and Cincinnati with a lopsided win at home over Central Florida on Tuesday night.

The Cyclones are 4-2 in the Big 12 and beat the Cowboys 83-71 back on January 10th in Hilton Coliseum.

That’s senior guard Tamin Lipsey, who says Oklahoma State is always a tough matchup. The Cowboys beat the Cyclones in Stillwater last season.
