About the College Basketball schedule
This college basketball schedule for 2026-27 lists every game involving a team ranked in the AP Top 25, grouped by month and by night, with the venue and an Eastern-time tip-off for each. Games already played show their final score.
Monday, Nov. 2, 2026, brought the first full slate of games, after the Sunday opener in Rome between Notre Dame and Villanova. From there the calendar moves through conference play to the conference tournaments in March, the last stop before the NCAA tournament field is chosen.
How to use the College Basketball schedule
Choose a month to open its own page, then read down its nights of ranked games.
Each ranked team carries its AP number beside its name, so games between two ranked teams are easy to spot.
The Next up tag marks the month where the next ranked game will be played.
Totals above the calendar show how many games, teams and nights of play the Top 25 schedule holds.
College Basketball schedule FAQ
Why doesn't this schedule list every college basketball game?
It lists only games involving an AP Top 25 team, because Division I plays thousands of games a season. The list follows the AP poll: a team's upcoming games appear once it is voted into the Top 25 and drop off if it falls out, unless the opponent is ranked.
When is Selection Sunday 2027?
Sunday, March 14, 2027. That day the selection committee announces the 76-team field and the bracket, and the first games are played two days later.
What are the dates of March Madness 2027?
The men's tournament runs from March 16 to April 5, 2027. The Opening Round is March 16-17, the first round March 18-19, the second round March 20-21, the Sweet 16 March 25-26 and the Elite Eight March 27-28; the Final Four is April 3 and the title game April 5, both at Ford Field in Detroit.
