No. 7 Texas and No. 3 Kansas meet for the third time this season with the Big 12 tournament title on the line. Texas is looking for its first Big 12 tournament championship since the 2021 season.

The Longhorns took down Oklahoma State and TCU on the way to the championship, while Kansas beat West Virginia and Iowa State.

After splitting the regular season series, this serves as a rubber match between the top 10 schools.

Kansas opens as a two-point favorite in this matchup between the two Big 12 powers. Texas is likely to be without starting forward Timmy Allen for the third straight game.

Texas and Kansas have been the best two teams in the conference all season long. Both teams are well-positioned for a high seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Expect an exciting finish to the Big 12 basketball season.
