Earlier this week, the Big 12 and BIG EAST Conferences announced the 2023 schedule for the BIG EAST-Big 12 Battle, the men's basketball non-conference scheduling alliance which is in its fifth year. Games this season will be played from November 30-December 5.

With each conference adding member schools since the start of the original agreement, the Battle will increase from 10 to 11 matchups for the 2023-24 and 2024-25 seasons. The Big 12 will host six games in 2023-24, while the BIG EAST will host six the following season.

The Battle matchups are jointly determined by the two conferences, with the home team choosing the venue of its game. Broadcast arrangements for the contests will be determined by the national television rights holder of the home team, which is ESPN for the Big 12 and FOX Sports for the BIG EAST.

TCU will face Georgetown on December 2 in Washington, DC. It will be only the second time the two programs have met. Their previous meeting, also in the BIG EAST-Big 12 Battle, occurred on December 18, 2021, also in Washington, DC. The Horned Frogs beat the Hoyas 80-73.

TCU is 2-2 all-time in the BIG EAST-Big 12 Battle, with its other win coming against Providence during last season that ended with a record of 22-13 and a first-round win in the NCAA Tournament. Ed Cooley, who coached Providence for the last 12 seasons, will take over the Georgetown program after a 7-25 season.

Game times and television networks will be announced when available.
