2012 Big 12 Schedule Released



The Big 12 released the 2012 men’s basketball schedule today.  With the subtraction of Nebraska and Colorado, the league has trimmed two of the lesser basketball programs and adopted a round robbing format.  With just 10 teams remaining, all 10 teams will play each of the other 9 teams twice, once at home and once on the road.  The conference does not look particularly strong this upcoming season, but the future of the league looks bright.  So out of the 18 conference games, only 3 are not currently scheduled to be broadcast.  As the season approaches, we will further break down the opponents and matchups, but for now here is the schedule:
  • Wednesday, 1/4 (Time - TBA) @OSU (TV - TBA)
  • Saturday 1/7 (12:30p.m.) Baylor (Big 12 Network)
  • Wednesday 1/11 (8p.m.) Kansas (ESPNU)
  • Saturday 1/14 (12:30p.m.) @ A&M (Big 12 Network)
  • Tuesday 1/17 (7p.m.) @ OU (Big 12 Network)
  • Saturday 1/21 (4p.m.) @ Iowa State (ESPN2)
  • Wednesday 1/25 (8p.m.) Kansas State (ESPNU)
  • Saturday 1/28 (12:30p.m.) @ Missouri (Big 12 Network)
  • Tuesday 1/31 (7p.m.) OSU (Big 12 Network)
  • Saturday 2/4 (TBA) @ Texas (TBA)
  • Tuesday 2/7 (7p.m.) @ Kansas State (Big 12 Network)
  • Saturday 2/11 (TBA) OU (TBA)
  • Tuesday 2/14 (6p.m.) Texas A&M (ESPN2)
  • Saturday 2/18 (7p.m.) @ Kansas (Big 12 Network)
  • Wednesday 2/22 (8p.m.) @ Iowa State (ESPNU)
  • Saturday 2/25 (3p.m.) Texas (Big 12 Network)
  • Monday 2/27 (6p.m.) @ Baylor (ESPNU)
  • Saturday 3/3 (3p.m.) Missouri (Big 12 Network)
That, ladies and gentlemen, is a brutal schedule.  Not a single gimme in the whole lot.  But a lot of television exposure for the Red Raiders.
