Iowa State survived two potential game-winning shots from Texas Tech and won 82-80 in overtime. After two missed free throws from Nick Weiler-Babb, the Red Raiders failed to get a shot off with a chance to tie or win. The Cyclones moved to 18-9 overall, 10-5 in the Big 12, and for the moment, hold a half-game lead for second place in the conference. It was the Cyclones’ fifth conference road win — the most since they won the Big 12 in 2000-01.
Iowa State was carried by the hot shooting of senior guards Naz Mitrou-Long and Matt Thomas in the first half.
