2026 Big 12 Men's Basketball Conference Schedule Revealed
POSTED: September 23, 2025 -- 5:30 p.m. CT
The Big 12 has released the 2026 men's basketball conference schedule. Each school has a home-and-home with three other Conference opponents, and faces the other 12 opponents once, with six at home and six on the road for an 18-game Big 12 schedule.
Opponents were selected to best balance the schedule in terms of travel and competitiveness. Conference play begins Friday, Jan. 2 as West Virginia travels to Iowa State, with the remaining 14 teams opening Saturday, Jan. 3. The regular season finishes Saturday, March 7, before teams head to the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, March 10-14 to compete for a Big 12 title.
Finalized details on times and television designations will be announced at a later date.
Four Big 12 teams reached the Sweet 16 in the 2025 NCAA Tournament, with Texas Tech advancing to the Elite 8 and Houston finishing as a National Finalist. The Conference had the nation's best winning percentage in the NCAA Tournament, as seven teams were selected for the Big Dance.
Big 12 teams will open the regular season Monday, Nov. 3 with non-conference action.
