AMES — What a phenomenal basketball game and hey, the good guys won.

Iowa State 72, No. 9 Baylor 69.

Deonte Burton led the way for Iowa State with 22 points. The Cyclones got killed on the boards but were brilliant offensively.

That’s a five-game winning streak for Iowa State, who also snapped a five-game losing streak to Baylor.
