If BYU wins its first game on Wednesday morning, it will advance to the quarterfinals to take on 4-seed Texas Tech. That game would also be played in the morning on Thursday and would be broadcast on either ESPN or ESPN2.

No. 1 Houston locked up the top seed in the Big 12 tournament on Saturday with a dominant win over no. 14 Kansas. The Jayhawks go into the tournament with major injury concerns. Kansas' leading scorer Kevin McCullar has missed multiple games over the last month due to injury. On Saturday, star big man Hunter Dickinson left the game against Houston with a dislocated shoulder.

Texas Tech ended the regular season on a high note. The Red Raiders go into the tournament on a three-game winning streak. All three wins were by double digits. BYU and Texas Tech faced each other early in the conference schedule. BYU took a 17-point lead into the halftime locker room, then Texas Tech stormed back for the 85-78 win.
