COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Curtis Stinson scored 27 points for the third straight game and Iowa State was 25-for-27 at the free throw line, pulling away in the second half of an 82-58 victory over Missouri on Wednesday night.

The road is no longer a problem for the Cyclones (13-6, 3-3 Big 12), who ended a 28-game conference road losing streak last year. They've won six of their last eight conference road games, and ended a five-game slump at Missouri.

Thomas Gardner had 15 points to end a run of five straight 20-plus point games for Missouri (10-7, 3-3), which has been blown out in its last two games.

The Tigers shot 38 percent and committed 19 turnovers. A frustrated coach Quin Snyder drew his second technical and an automatic ejection with 1:16 to go.
