Big 12 releases 2023-24 men's basketball conference schedule
On Tuesday, the Big 12 Conference released their 2023-24 men’s basketball conference schedule in their first season as a 14-team league with the new additions of BYU, UCF, Cincinnati, and Houston. The conference that some regard as the best in college basketball got even bigger, and with that comes an exciting slate of inter-conference matchups this upcoming season.
According to the Big 12, the schedule was built by accounting for geography, historical results, and a poll of the coaches to best balance the schedule in terms of travel and competitive balance. Conference play will begin for all teams on January 6 and the last game of the regular season will be on March 9, transitioning into the Phillips 66 Big 12 Men’s Basketball Championship Tournament which will take place from March 12-16 at T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
But before we talk conference championship action, let’s take a look at every Big 12 team’s conference schedule ahead of the 2023-2024 season which can be seen below.
