Iowa State poses a defensive challenge for Illinois as the Cyclones have risen to the occasion and subdued opposing offenses like BYU through their March Madness run. If able to maintain their efficiency, the Cyclones could be on their way to book a long-awaited date with either No. 1 UConn or No. 5 San Diego State. Iowa State hasn't reached the Elite Eight since 2000 when they fell to Michigan State.

FanDuel Sportsbook listed Iowa State as a 1.5-point favorite to advance to the Elite Eight. The Cyclones also have +2300 odds to be crowned national champions this year.
