The Big 12–Big East Battle enters its fourth year in 2022 with a full slate of games that are sure to entertain. The Big East won the 'battle' in 2019 while the two leagues tied in 2020 and 2021.

Big 12–Big East Battle

As the name indicates, the 'battle' is an annual NCAA college basketball series in which 10 of the 11 teams from the Big East face the 10 teams of the Big 12 conference.

This could be the final season for the battle as the contract runs out after 2022 and there is no word yet on if either conference has an interest in extending it.

Texas Tech will host Georgetown on Nov. 30 coming off an amazing first season from coach Mark Adams. The Red Raiders made the Sweet 16 for the third time in five years in Adams' first year as coach.

Meanwhile, Georgetown has struggled of late in the Big East and has also struggled to keep players on the roster, losing several to the transfer portal. This one should be an exciting one to watch in Lubbock.

The Red Raiders have played in just two of the three possible games due to a COVID-19 cancelation in 2020. Tech's record is 0-2 in the two games, with a 65-60 overtime road loss to DePaul in 2019, and a 72-68 road loss to Providence in 2021.
