BIG 12 SCHEDULE MATRIX
In June, Houston and the Big 12 Conference released the 2024-25 Conference Schedule Matrix. Opponents were selected based on a combination of geography, historical results and a poll of the coaches to best balance the schedule in terms of travel and competitiveness. A full Big 12 schedule will be released at a later date.
Houston will play home-and-away contests against Baylor, Texas Tech and UCF. The Cougars will host first-year members Arizona and Arizona State and welcome Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State and West Virginia. First-time road trips to Colorado, Iowa State and Utah highlight the road slate along with BYU, Cincinnati and TCU. Big 12 Conference game dates and times will be announced at a later date.
