Whichever team emerges as the champion of the Big 12 Tournament will earn an automatic bid to the 2024 Women’s NCAA Tournament.
Oklahoma won the regular season championship
The Oklahoma Sooners enter the 2024 Big 12 Women’s Basketball Tournament with the No. 1 seed. Oklahoma finished with a 15-3 league record.
After the Sooners is the No. 2-seed Texas.
The Sooners and Longhorns are entering their final Big 12 Conference Tournament before leaving for the SEC.
First time at the T-Mobile Center
The 2024 edition of the Big 12 women’s tournament brings the 14-team field to the 18,000-seat T-Mobile Center.
It’s the same arena where the men’s Big 12 Tournament is played.
Previously, the women’s tournament was played at Municipal Arena in Kansas City.
No Sunday Play
For the first time, the Big 12 Women’s Basketball Tournament will not have games played on a Sunday.
