In a conference that has been run by Texas and Baylor for years, in 2023, No. 3 seed Iowa State took down No. 1 seed Texas to take home the conference title in the Big 12 Tournament. This year, Kansas State is currently running the conference, but with the injury to leading scorer Ayoka Lee, the Wildcats look vulnerable.

With just eight games left in the season, the Wildcats hold a full-game lead over Oklahoma. Kansas State, if they can keep the lead, should go into the Big 12 Tournament as the one seed. The Big 12 Tournament will take place at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri. The tournament will run from March 7 through March 12.

All games will be streamed on ESPN+ and Big 12 streaming. Here is how the schedule of the tournament will be laid out.
