Big East–Big 12 Alliance

The Big East–Big 12 Scheduling Alliance or Big East-Big 12 Battle is an annual NCAA college basketball series where all 10 teams from both the Big East and Big 12 conferences face each other.[1][2] The contract is set for four years, with the series to be played annually from 2019 through 2022.[3] The inaugural series began in December 2019, with the Big East winning 8–2.

Format

For the first ‘Alliance, unlike the SEC–Big East Challenge, Gavitt Tipoff Games, Big 12/SEC Challenge, the teams do not face each other all on the same day. Instead, the teams face each other over the span of a month. It is not clear if this will continue for future ‘Alliance games.
