2025 Big 12 Basketball Tournament Projection: Bracket, schedule for field if season ended today - March 3

With only one week left in the regular season, the Big 12 Basketball Tournament is right around the corner. So, it’s good to check in and see a projection for the tournament bracket and the schedule as of today, March 3rd.

On Sunday, March 2nd, there was only one game played in the Big 12. That was between Colorado and Kansas State and saw the Wildcats win by nine points at home. Both of those teams are on the wrong side of .500 right now in conference play and while a win for Kansas State certainly helped, it didn’t change where they currently are in the standings. Colorado, meanwhile, was solidified at the bottom of the conference.

With all of that in mind, and ahead of the season coming to an end, here’s a look at the schedule for the Big 12 tournament and what the bracket would look like if the season ended today.

Big 12 Tournament Projected Bracket and Schedule

The Big 12 now has 16 teams, all of whom are going to make it to the Big 12 Tournament. Eight teams from the Big 12 will begin their conference tournament on March 11th. Four will begin the next day after getting a bye. Then another four are going to benefit from a double bye in the conference tournament.
