[ad_1]

February is rapidly approaching and March Madness will be here before you know it.

Iowa State basketball has high aspirations this season and will be in the postseason hunt for a No. 1 men’s seed in the NCAA Tournament.

The Cyclones faced a setback in overtime against Arizona on Monday night, when the Wildcats got the game-tying buzzer-beating 3-pointer from mid-court to extend the game past regulation. Arizona rode the momentum and won 86-75.

The Cyclones dropped to 17-3 overall and 7-2 in Big 12 Conference play.
