How to Watch

Watch NBC Sports on Peacock.

On Saturday, January 14, the No. 9-ranked Iowa State Cyclones head to Stillwater, Oklahoma, for an interconference matchup against the Oklahoma State Cowboys — and with both schools looking to inch ever-closer to a berth in the NCAA Division I men's college basketball tournament in March, the stakes are already high. And it's only January.

The college basketball season moves at a breakneck pace, and both teams would love nothing more than to secure an all-important conference victory at this point in their respective schedules.

There's only one way to catch the latest Big 12 basketball game — by logging on to Peacock!

The game begins on Saturday, January 24 at 4:00 p.m. ET/1:00 p.m. PT on Peacock, and will be broadcast live from OSU's famed Gallagher-Iba Arena. A mid-afternoon weekend start time means that the student section will be livelier than ever — and that kind of raucous home-court advantage could mean the difference between OSU pulling off the upset of the season and fading further down the Big 12 standings.

The Iowa State-Oklahoma State game is the latest Big 12 college basketball matchup on Peacock, in a season already filled with them — and it's all part of the strategic partnership between the conference and the streaming giant to bring the best basketball games to as many sports fans as possible.

"The Big 12 is thrilled to partner with NBC Sports and Peacock as we continue to expand access and coverage of Big 12 men's basketball," Commissioner Brett Yormark said in an August 2025 statement. "Alongside our portfolio of existing media partners, NBC Sports and Peacock will provide our league with unprecedented promotion and storytelling."

This game marks the second time the two programs will meet during the 2025-2026 season. On January 10, the Cyclones defeated the Cowboys 81-71, extending Iowa State's unbeaten streak to open the season to 16 games.

With Iowa State now sitting at 17-2 (4-2 in Big 12 play), they'll look to climb back up the rankings, led by frontcourt stars Milan Momcilovic and Joshua Jefferson, who lead the school in scoring and rebounds per game, respectively.

Oklahoma State will be looking for the upset, led by senior guard Anthony Roy, who is currently averaging 17.6 points per game.
