2025 Big 12 Tournament bracket, schedule: Live updates, college basketball scores, NCAA bracketology

The first full day of Big 12 Tournament action did not disappoint as two lower-seeded teams pulled upsets and two games finished within two possessions. The outcome was an appetizer for the main course coming Wednesday and Thursday in Kansas City as Cincinnati, Colorado, Kansas State and Utah all advanced into the second round of the bracket.

No. 13 seed Cincinnati did so by dispatching No. 12 seed Oklahoma State 87-68 in the biggest blowout — and first game — of the day. No. 16 seed Colorado followed that up by holding off No. 9 seed TCU in the final bout of the early session. In the night slate, No. 10 Kansas State and No. 14 seed UCF advanced past No. 15 seed Arizona State and No. 11 seed Utah, respectively.

Tuesday’s fun sets up what looks to be another fantastic full day of tournament action Wednesday starting at 12:30 p.m. ET between No. 5 seed Iowa State and No. 13 seed Cincinnati, followed by No. 16 seed Colorado drawing No. 8 seed West Virginia. The evening schedule also features a prominent bubble team in No. 7 seed Baylor, which faces No. 10 seed Kansas State. Then, to wrap the night, No. 6 seed Kansas — the preseason No. 1 team and the fan favorite every year in Kansas City — looks to establish momentum in the postseason against No. 11 seed Utah.

Below is the full schedule and tip times for the tournament.
