The matchups for the 2019-20 Gavitt Tipoff Games between the B1G and the Big East have been set, according to a report from Jon Rothstein.

On Tuesday afternoon, Rothstein tweeted out the reported matchups for this year’s series. There will be eight games, with each conference hosting four of  those contests. The 2019-20 season will mark the fifth playing of the Gavitt Tipoff Games.

Here are the matchups for this season, as reported by Rothstein:

  • Villanova at Ohio State
  • Michigan State at Seton Hall
  • Creighton at Michigan
  • Purdue at Marquette
  • Providence at Northwestern
  • Penn State at Georgetown
  • Minnesota at Butler
  • DePaul at Iowa

The annual conference series started in 2015 and will run through 2022. The two leagues have played pretty evenly through the first four years, with the B1G and the Big East tying in three of those seasons.

Last year, the B1G won the series 5-3.
