The Summit League announced the full slate of men’s basketball games for the 2026‑27 season on July 30, confirming that each of its ten members will contest fourteen conference contests, split evenly between home and road.
North Dakota State’s path through the league will see most of its games fall on Thursdays and Saturdays, beginning with a road test at St. Thomas on January 7 before the Bison host Kansas City on January 14 for their first home appearance.
A packed conference calendar
The regular‑season finale is slated for February 27, when NDSU welcomes North Dakota to the Scheels Center, closing out a schedule that culminates in the Summit League Tournament in Sioux Falls from March 4‑7.
The tournament, held at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center, will bring together the conference’s top teams, and NDSU enters as the defending regular‑season and tournament champions, looking to extend its streak of NCAA Tournament appearances.
While the complete schedule will be finalized and released later, the league’s commitment to a balanced home‑and‑away format underscores its aim to foster competitive balance across the circuit.
