Big 12 announces 2024-25 women’s basketball conference opponents

IRVING, Texas – The Big 12 Conference announced the home and away opponent schedule matrix for the 2024-25 season Thursday morning. With four new members in the conference in 2024-25 for a total of 16 members, each team will face three opponents twice (home and away) and the remaining 12 opponents once.

Iowa State will play Kansas twice, Kansas State and UCF while hosting BYU, Colorado, Houston, TCU, Texas Tech and Utah. The Cyclones will travel to Arizona, Arizona State, Baylor, Cincinnati, Oklahoma State and West Virginia. Despite adding four new members in each of the previous two seasons, Iowa State will only play in one new facility when the Cyclones visit Arizona. ISU visited Arizona State in 1987 and 1994 and visited Cincinnati once in 2013.

Opponents were selected based on a combination of geographic factors, historical results and a coaches survey to best balance the schedule in terms of travel and competitiveness. A full Big 12 schedule with dates and times will be released at a later date.
