2/23/2026 A thrilling “Big Monday” victory 70-67 for Iowa State against Houston this past Monday at Hilton Coliseum. Hilton Magic. I guess a yellow-out is better than a white-out. Nate Heise hit a go ahead 3 pointer in the final seconds to seal a game that lived up to the hype on National TV. Definitely an impressive two game home stand against Kansas and Houston. The win moves the Cyclones to 23-3 and a tie for second in the conference. Now we are predicting a loss Saturday
