With the regular season coming to a close this weekend, the bracket for the 2022 Big 12 Men’s Basketball Tournament was revealed Saturday evening. The tournament is set to tip off Wednesday at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri.

Kansas earned the No. 1 seed in the Big 12 with a tremendous regular season. The Jayhawks took care of business all season long, amassing a 25-6 overall record, and a 14-4 record inside the Big 12. In its final showdown of the season, Kansas defeated Texas in overtime, 70-63.

Next, the state of Texas is well represented at the top. At No. 2, Baylor remained one of the fiercest teams in the country this season. Then, Texas Tech comes in at No. 3 following an impressive 23-8 season. Finally, the aforementioned Longhorns are No. 4 in the Big 12 Tournament, looking to make a run at the crown.

Additionally, TCU comes in at No. 5 — and they’ll be looking to pull some upsets that’ll shake-up the Big 12. The Horned Frogs were a fun team to watch in 2021-22, and they’re ready to put themselves in the spotlight.

The championship game for the Big 12 Tournament is set to be played at 5 p.m. EST on the day before Selection Sunday. Below is the full TV schedule for the 2022 Big 12 Men’s Basketball Tournament.
