As the 2024-25 season continues to draw closer, the Houston Cougars' Men's Basketball program learned the breakdown of its Big 12 Conference opponents with the release of the league's schedule matrix on Thursday.
For the first time in school history, the Cougars will play a 20-game conference schedule. All Big 12 schools will play five schools in home-and-away series, five opponents at home only and five schools on the road only.
In 2024-25, Houston meets Baylor, Kansas, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech and West Virginia in home-and-away series.
BYU, Cincinnati, Iowa State, TCU and Utah will visit Fertitta Center while the Cougars hit the road to take on Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Kansas State and UCF.
Opponents were selected based on a combination of geography, historical results and a poll of the coaches to best balance the schedule in terms of travel and competitiveness.
A full Big 12 schedule with game dates, times and broadcasting networks will be released at a later date.
A year ago, Houston captured the Big 12 regular-season championship – the first in Houston Athletics history – with a 32-5 overall record and a 15-3 mark in league play despite a 1-2 start in its first three Big 12 games.
