Report: Big Ten, Big East in talks to renew Gavitt Tipoff Games beyond this season

The Big Ten and the Big East are looking to renew the Gavitt Tipoff Games beyond this season, according to Jon Rothstein.

Rothstein reported late Thursday that the two leagues “are in advanced discussions to renew the Gavitt Games beyond the 2023-24 college basketball season.”

The Gavitt Tipoff Games were first played during the 2015-16 season and was an eight-year agreement between the Big Ten and Big East.

Originally scheduled to end with the 2022-23 season, it was extended to this season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as the games were not played in 2020.
