No. 16 Iowa State ended their two-game losing streak with an 85-81 win against Oklahoma State in Saturday's regular-season finale. The Cyclones (23-7) are one of several teams with a "great chance" of winning the tournament championship, thanks to a conference loaded with talent.
"I think there's 10 teams right now that are saying they've got a great chance to win this tournament," Cyclones coach Fred Hoiberg said, via ESPN. "When your No. 8 seed is Oklahoma State, when your No. 7 seed is Baylor ... as deep as our conference is, I think you've got a lot of teams right now saying they've got a great chance to cut down the nets in Kansas City."
Iowa State's 23-7 record includes an 80-73 loss to Kansas State on March 1. The Wildcats believe winning the tournament could improve the odds of them receiving an invitation to the NCAA tournament.
"I don't know what our chances are in March Madness," Kansas State forward Thomas Gipson said, "but we want to win the Big 12 tournament so that we have a chance."
The Wildcats' last win came on March 1 against Iowa State; they then lost their last two games of the regular season.
