The 2022 Big 12 men's basketball tournament was a postseason men's basketball tournament for teams of the Big 12 Conference. It was played March 9–12, 2022, in Kansas City, Missouri, at the T-Mobile Center.[1] Kansas won the tournament, their 12th Big 12 Tournament championship, to earn the conference's automatic berth in the 2022 NCAA tournament. The tournament was sponsored by Phillips 66.
Seeds
[edit]For the second time in conference history and the first time since the conference became a 10-team conference, the entire conference did not participate in the tournament. Oklahoma State did not participate due to its postseason ban.[2] The only other time this happened was in 2004, when Baylor missed the tournament.
The top seven teams earned a first-round bye. Teams were seeded by record within the conference, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams with identical conference records. The first tiebreaker, as is standard in most sports, is head-to-head results between the tied teams. The second tiebreaker is taking the head-to-head results against each team in the conference beginning with the first-place team and working down until there is no longer a tie.[3]
