Per a release for the event, all three SEC teams will play all three Big 12 teams during the course of the tournament. Schedule details can be found here.
This isn’t an official Big 12-SEC challenge, but it should be a lot of fun for the teams and fans involved. Back in 2017, the tournament also pitted SEC and Big 12 squads against each other, and it was the highest-attended tournament in the event’s 20-year history.
