The Southeastern Conference announced the full 2027 schedule for Missouri basketball on July 27, confirming a 18‑game conference slate that will open on the road and close at home in Columbia.
Missouri’s season will debut with a January 2 showdown at Arkansas, marking the first of many road tests before the Tigers return to Mizzou Arena for their final regular‑season game against LSU on March 6.

Neutral‑site nonconference tests
Outside the SEC, Missouri will play five neutral‑site games in November and December, beginning with a matchup against Saint Louis before traveling to face Marquette, Kansas, Nebraska and Illinois. The Tigers will also host Pittsburgh in the ACC/SEC Challenge on December 1 and are reportedly finalizing an agreement to meet Indiana in Bloomington on December 18.
Tipoff times and television designations for all of the games will be released in the coming weeks, allowing fans to plan their viewing schedules.
With a blend of traditional rivals, new conference opponents and high‑profile neutral‑site contests, the 2027 schedule promises a demanding but exciting season for the Missouri Tigers.
