A Milestone Matchup
The Chanticleers will travel to Eugene on September 11, 2027, to meet the Ducks at Autzen Stadium, marking a rare non‑conference meeting between the two programs.
For Coastal Carolina, the contest represents more than just a game; it is the first time the school will test its mettle against a Big Ten opponent, a milestone that underscores the program’s growing ambition on the national stage.
It will also be the team’s second appearance on the West Coast, following a 2023 trip to UCLA when the Bruins were still members of the Pac‑12 before joining the Big Ten a year later.
Season Outlook
The 2026 campaign begins with a road test at West Virginia on September 5, after which the Chanticleers will host Fordham at home on September 12, setting the tone for a challenging and exciting schedule.
