OSU Announces 2026‑27 Nonconference Slate
Oklahoma State University has published its complete nonconference schedule for the 2026‑27 men’s basketball season, a 14‑game lineup that blends home contests with road trips across the country.
The schedule anchors the Cowboys in Stillwater, where nine of the games will be played at the historic Gallagher‑Iba Arena, including early‑season matchups against Queens and Central Arkansas.
Neutral‑site challenges and early road tests
Beyond the familiar confines of the arena, the team will travel to College Station to face Texas A&M on November 12, while also participating in the Rays Children’s Charleston Classic, a neutral‑site tournament that will see them square off against Dayton, Minnesota, Northwestern, Utah and Virginia Tech.
The season officially begins on November 2 with a home game against Incarnate Word, and later in the month the Cowboys will host preseason exhibitions against New Mexico, Tulsa and Wisconsin.
Late‑season highlights
A highlight of the latter half of the schedule is the return of Bedlam to the Paycom Center on December 12, where the men’s and women’s teams will meet in a doubleheader, and a December 20 appearance at Tulsa’s BOK Center against Northwestern.
Fans can secure season tickets starting at $175 through the university’s ticket portal, while the full slate underscores the program’s expanded NCAA‑approved schedule.
