What is the Big 12 conference scheduling matrix for the 2023-24 season? Women's basketball matchups, playing formats, and more

The Big 12 announced next season's scheduling matrix and scheduling. The teams will face five other basketball programs twice and the rest of the eight conference opponents once to make for a total of 18 games each.

There were several aspects considered when choosing the various opponents facing each other. Some of these include a survey poll of coaches to find the absolute right balance of games, geographical locations, historical matchup results and travel distances.

The full schedule will be released at a later date.

The Big 12 revolution

The Big 12 is entering next season with four new members; independent Brigham Young University, Houston, UCF and Cincinnati from the American Athletic Conference.

The AAC programs negotiated a higher exit fee than the $10 million stipulated to join the Big 12.

The Big 12 also lost two key members to the Southeastern Conference: the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners. The two programs will depart for their new conference on July 1, 2024.

The Big 12 scheduling matrix will definitely change next season with the planned departures and further expansion speculation.
