Bradley's 2026-27 schedule

[yoda]

The same online website (D1 Docket) that knew 2 months in advance last year about the game we had vs North Central
(on Dec. 14, 2025) and which has been pretty accurate ...
says Bradley will be playing at NIU and at Washington State this upcoming year.
I guess time will tell.

If so, then we have the next pieces of the 2026-27 schedule
- @ NIU
- @ Washington State
- 20-game MVC home-and-home schedule
- March 4-7, 2027 - MVC Tournament

 

[64NIT]

D1Docket's spreadsheet has been posted for anyone wishing to follow the progress of various teams' schedules:

bloggingthebracket.com will be different this year. Chris won't be tracking every team. His explanation is at the top:

2026-27 Men’s College Basketball Early Season Tournaments

Changes in scheduling rules mean this page will look different than it has in the past.

ahah... I found another piece of the 2026-27 schedule....

In an interview with Green Bay head coach Doug Gottlieb, he says that part of the deal when Bradley went there last fall for
an exhibition game was that Green Bay has to come and play at Bradley the following two years.
So apparently, we will be hosting Green Bay in both 2026-27 and 2027-28.

If this turns out to be correct, then we have another game on the 2026-27 schedule
- Home game vs Green Bay
- @ NIU
- @ Washington State
- 20-game MVC home-and-home schedule
- March 4-7, 2027 - MVC Tournament

Getting back to Bradley’s 2026-27 schedule, has anyone heard any news?
We know there will be 20 MVC games,
Then possibly the three nonconference games noted - plus rumors of a tourney in Florida.

The move is being done to encourage even more high-profile nonconference games in November, December ... and January and February
