On Thursday morning, the Big 12 conference unveiled the matchups for the 2024-2025 men's basketball schedules. BYU is scheduled to host some of college basketball's top programs in the Marriott Center.

BYU will face Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and Texas Tech at home. They will play two games (one home, one away) against Arizona, Arizona State, Cincinnati, Utah, and West Virginia. They will play conference road games at Colorado, Houston, Iowa State, TCU, and UCF.

This will be the first time since the Mountain West days that BYU will face Utah twice in the same season. BYU's scheduled home-and-home series will be mostly regional, as BYU will take on Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah twice.

The Big 12 conference schedule will feature 20 total games instead of the 18 games the league has historically played. Every Big 12 team will play each other at least once. There will be five teams that BYU will only play at home, there will be five teams that BYU will only play on the road, and five teams that BYU will play twice. The conference schedule will tipoff one week earlier than last year and there will be no bye weeks.

The conference schedule will be even more challenging for BYU in 2024-2025 than it was in 2023-2024. Iowa State, Kansas, Houston, and Arizona will likely be in the preseason top 15 and Baylor might crack the top 15 as well. Kevin Young will have a tremendous challenge on his hands with a young roster in his first season in the Big 12.
