The marquee match up of Big 12 over the holiday weekend kicks off Friday morning as #13 Iowa State (6-2, 6-1) travels to Austin to take on #17 Texas (5-2, 4-2). With Iowa State sitting alone atop the Big 12 standings, they are in a great position to make the Big 12 championship game with two games left to play. However, Iowa State absolutely needs to take care of business against the Longhorns, who are also still in the hunt for a Big 12 championship game berth. Iowa State completely dismantled Kansas State last week, winning 45-0.
