MILWAUKEE — Iowa State will practice at a little after 4 p.m. today in preparation for its Round of 32 matchup with 4th-seeded Purdue on Saturday (8:40 p.m. on TBS).

Vegas chimed in on the matchup early this morning and is basically predicting a draw. The experts in the desert have tabbed Purdue as a slight 1-point favorite.

This exactly matches the KenPom projection of a 76-75 Boilermaker victory. According to the statistical website, Iowa State has a 48 percent chance of advancing to the Sweet 16.
