Oregon Ducks MBB unveils non-conference schedule for 2026-27 season

The new-look Oregon Ducks men's basketball program revealed its non-conference schedule for the upcoming season.

The Oregon Ducks basketball team has released their non-conference schedule for the 2026-27 season. The season kicks off with three exhibition games in October, followed by the opening tip-off on November 2nd against Montana. The Ducks will host Seattle University on October 15th at Matthew Knight Arena, marking the debut of their new roster under head coach Dana Altman.

Following a pair of exhibition games against former Pac-12 teams, Utah on October 21st and Stanford on October 25th, the regular season officially begins on November 2nd at home against Montana.

Several key transfers, including Jasper Johnson, Dwayne Aristode, and Tyrone Riley IV, will join the team, aiming to make a strong impression. Altman needed to utilize the transfer portal to bolster his roster after a significant number of players left in the transfer portal the previous year. The Ducks will also face Mississippi Valley State, Pepperdine, St. John's (during the Players Era Festival in Las Vegas), Indiana State, Southern University, Portland State, Gonzaga (in Seattle), and potentially Louisville and Texas Tech in the NCAA Tournament. The outcome against St. John's will determine the tournament path.
