The #25 Xavier Musketeers will take on the Iowa State Cyclones at 7 p.m. ET Wednesday at Barclays Center. After these two teams made easy work of their previous opponents, one of them is set up to suffer a discouraging change of fortune.

Xavier was fully in charge on Sunday, breezing past the Norfolk State Spartans 88-48 at home. Guard Adam Kunkel was the offensive standout of the game for the Musketeers, shooting 8-for-10 from downtown and finishing with 26 points.

Meanwhile, Iowa State entered their matchup on Sunday as the heavy favorite, and they fully lived up to expectations. They steamrolled past the Grambling Tigers 82-47 at home. Five players on Iowa State scored in the double digits: forward Aljaz Kunc (21), guard Tristan Enaruna (15), guard Tre Jackson (12), guard Tyrese Hunter (12), and guard Caleb Grill (10).
