The Lead
No. 17 Iowa State (4-2, 4-1 Big 12), tied for first in the Big 12 and 4-1 in league play for just the second time in school history (2017), returns home to face Baylor (1-3, 1-3 Big 12) on Saturday. ISU won its 20th Big 12 game since 2017 at Kansas, the second-most in the league during that span. Behind the nation's leading rusher Breece Hall (150.2), ISU leads the Big 12 and ranks 23rd nationally in rushing per game (200.7), notching 200+ rushing yards in four of six games.
