Schedule Overview
The Atlantic Sun Conference has unveiled the 2026‑27 men’s basketball schedule for the University of North Florida, outlining a 14‑game conference slate that runs from early January through late February.
Games are arranged in a Thursday‑Saturday pattern, giving the team a consistent rhythm as it travels across the Southeast, and the conference has balanced the home and road slate evenly.
The regular season opens with a home matchup against Bellarmine on January 7, followed by a road test against Lipscomb on January 9, and continues with early road trips to West Florida and Queens (NC) in mid‑January.
Mid‑season features a crosstown rivalry with Jacksonville, meeting the Dolphins twice — first on the road January 23 and again at home on February 20 — while also hosting Stetson and Florida Gulf Coast later in the month.
The schedule culminates with a final stretch of road games at Florida Gulf Coast on February 25 and at Stetson on February 27, rounding out a full complement of conference contests.
Notable Rivalries
Among the highlighted matchups, the series against Jacksonville stands out as a crosstown rivalry, with both teams trading home and away victories throughout the season.
North Florida will also meet Bellarmine and Lipscomb twice each, providing ample opportunities for competitive games that could influence postseason positioning.
