Clemson University has unveiled its non‑conference slate for the 2026‑27 men’s basketball season, a schedule that blends home‑court advantages with a handful of marquee road tests.
The plan calls for eight home contests and two exhibition games on campus, giving fans a chance to see the Tigers in action throughout the fall and early winter.
Maui Invitational and Key Road Tests
A centerpiece of the schedule is the 2026 Maui Invitational, where Clemson will open against Ole Miss before meeting either Washington or BYU in the second round, adding a neutral‑site spotlight to the lineup.
The Tigers will also embark on a home‑and‑home series with TCU, beginning with a December 12 showdown in Fort Worth, Texas, while the annual Palmetto Series will see them travel to South Carolina on December 15.
In addition, Clemson will host Stetson, American, North Dakota, The Citadel, Le Moyne and Colgate at home, and will face Boston College, Louisville, Miami, NC State, Pittsburgh, SMU and Virginia Tech on the road, though a matchup with North Carolina will be absent.
Ticket renewals for the upcoming season are now open, with a minimum price of $260 per seat and a deadline of August 28, prompting early commitments from the fan base.
The upcoming ACC schedule remains pending, but the non‑conference slate already sets the tone for a competitive season.
