2026 US college sports schedule announcements

Entities: University of Louisville · Grimsley High School football · University of North Carolina women's basketball · Western Kentucky University · Baylor Bears men's basketball

Overview

In late July, additional schedule releases expanded the 2026‑27 picture across several sports. The University of North Carolina’s women’s basketball program detailed a nine‑opponent non‑conference slate, opening in Paris against Oklahoma, then facing South Carolina in Charlotte, a home opener versus NC Central, and road trips to Penn, Disney World and regional rivals. North Carolina State announced its fall exhibition baseball schedule, featuring games against Appalachian State, the Tar Heels, Duke and Liberty, and marked the retirement of longtime coach Elliott Avent with Chris Hart named his successor. Multiple North Carolina high‑school football teams posted interstate matchups, including Grimsley vs. Varina (VA), Hough vs. Northwestern (SC), Mallard Creek vs. Maury (VA) and Gray Collegiate vs. Chambers (VA). Men’s golf schedules were confirmed for Bowling Green State (12 events) and the University of Louisville, which will compete in nine tournaments beginning at the Visit Knoxville Collegiate and concluding with NCAA regionals and the National Championship in Carlsbad, California. Baylor’s men’s basketball released a 14‑game non‑conference slate opening Nov 2 at home versus Northwestern State, featuring a neutral‑site game against Texas in San Antonio and participation in the Players Era Sixteen tournament in Las Vegas, with a final road series in Seattle. Washington State’s women’s basketball unveiled a 16‑game schedule that starts on the road at California and Oregon, includes the Cancun Challenge against Kansas and Missouri State, a multi‑team event in San Diego, and ends with a home finale versus Cal State LA. Together, these releases complete a broad rollout of 2026‑27 calendars across a wide range of collegiate and high‑school sports.
