The Iowa State big fella had a field day against Cincinnati's defense, especially down the stretch, where ISU went on a 13-3 run to end the game. Jefferson (19 points, eight rebounds, five assists) took full control of the offense, dialing up bucket after bucket from his hands or a pass that came from him.

Joshua Jefferson had 19 points, Dishon Jackson added 10 points and 15 rebounds, and No. 12 Iowa State leaned on its big men to beat Cincinnati 76-56 in the second round of the Big 12 Tournament on Wednesday.
