As the college football season kicks off, anticipation for college basketball is also building, with the USC Trojans men's basketball team announcing their nonconference schedule for the 2026-2027 season on Monday.
The Trojans are set to begin their campaign on November 2 at the Galen Center, where they will host the Milwaukee Panthers. Following this opening game, USC will head to Northern California for a matchup against the Wichita State Shockers in Lake Tahoe, before facing off against Cal in a classic Pac-12 rivalry.
After these initial contests, USC will return home to play against Arkansas Pine Bluff, Tarleton State, and Louisiana. Notably, the Trojans will participate in the Acrisure Series during Thanksgiving week in Palm Springs, California, where they will compete against South Carolina and Utah State.
The Trojans will then conclude their nonconference road games with a visit to San Diego on December 8, followed by a matchup against Texas Tech in Fort Worth, Texas, on December 13. USC will wrap up its nonconference schedule with home games against Jacksonville on December 19 and Western Michigan on December 22.
After completing their nonconference slate, USC will shift its focus to the Big Ten conference, with the conference schedule to be announced at a later date. This season marks an exciting transition for the Trojans as they compete in the Big Ten, which is known for its strong basketball programs and competitive atmosphere.
The 2026-2027 season promises to be a significant one for USC men's basketball as they aim to build on their previous successes and establish themselves in a new conference. Fans are eagerly awaiting the start of the season, as the Trojans look to make a strong impression in both their nonconference games and the upcoming Big Ten play.
