[Jameson McCausland]

IRVING, Texas — The Big 12 Conference released its Men's Basketball league schedule for the upcoming 2018-19 season Wednesday morning. Seventeen of UT's 18 conference games will be televised nationally by one of the ESPN family of networks, while the Texas-Oklahoma State game in Austin on Saturday, Feb. 16 will be televised nationally by CBS. UT announced its non-conference slate earlier this summer.

For the eighth straight year, the Big 12 schedule features a double round-robin format consisting of 18 games, with league members playing each other twice. UT will open conference action at Kansas State on Wednesday, Jan. 2 and play its Big 12 home opener against West Virginia on Saturday, Jan. 5. The Longhorns conclude league action with a home game against TCU on Saturday, March 9.

Each team will have a bye during conference play, and UT's open date will be in mid-February. The 2019 Phillips 66 Big 12 Men's Basketball Championship will be played March 13-16 in Kansas City's Sprint Center.

Games aired on an ESPN network also will be available through the ESPN App, accessible on computers, smartphones, tablets and connected devices to fans who receive their video subscription from an affiliated provider. All dates, times and network affiliations are subject to change.

 Thanks for the heads up Jameson. 

I am as excited about Shaka’s third year as I was CS third year. Which means I can’t wait for it to be over.

Hopefully I won’t soon be saying the same about TH’s third year.
