On Friday afternoon, the Nebraska men’s basketball team released the non-conference schedule for the 2025-26 season. The Huskers start the season with exhibitions against BYU and Midland at the end of October.
Other highlights include a game against Oklahoma to be played in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and participation in the Hall of Fame Classic in Kansas City. Head coach Fred Hoiberg is excited for what the non-conference schedule holds for Nebraska this season.
“We have a number of tests in our non-conference schedule, beginning with the exhibition game with a BYU team that went to the Sweet 16 last season. That matchup will give us a good gauge heading into the season. We open with three straight home games before facing Oklahoma and two high-caliber games in the Hall of Fame Classic the following week. The December portion of the schedule features Creighton which will be one of the favorites in the Big East and two Big Ten games before we return to conference play in January.”
The Huskers also have home matchups in the Big Ten against Purdue, Michigan State, Maryland, Wisconsin, Oregon, and Illinois. Nebraska is coming off a 2024-25 season that saw the Huskers finish with a 21-14 record and a championship in the College Basketball Crown.
