The University of Houston Men's Basketball program and Big 12 Conference released the league's 2025-26 schedule matrix on Thursday.

The Cougars and Big 12 schools will return to an 18-game schedule for the upcoming season. A year ago, Houston competed in 20-game conference schedule and posted a 19-1 mark, joining Duke as the only schools in NCAA Division I history to accomplish that feat.

Houston also posted a 10-0 road record in Big 12 games, becoming the first school in NCAA Division I history to accomplish that feat in a season.

The Cougars enter the 2025-26 campaign with a 14-game road winning streak, the nation's longest active streak.

All Big 12 schools will play three schools in home-and-away series, six opponents at home only and six schools on the road only.

In 2025-26, Houston meets Baylor, Cincinnati and Texas Tech in home-and-away series.

Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Kansas State, UCF and West Virginia will visit Fertitta Center while the Cougars hit the road to meet BYU, Iowa State, Kansas, Oklahoma State, TCU and Utah.

Opponents were selected based 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.
