Notre Dame has completed its men’s basketball non-conference schedule for the 2025-26 season and has now officially announced who they will face.
The Fighting Irish will have two exhibition games: one at Butler (October 17) and then at home against DePaul (October 24) inside Purcell Pavilion. The regular season then begins with three straight home games against LIU Brooklyn (November 3), Detroit Mercy (November 7) and Eastern Illinois (November 11).

ND will play its first road game at Ohio State on November 15 before hosting Bellarmine on November 19. Then the team will head to Las Vegas to compete in the Players Era tournament with games against Kansas, Rutgers and a team to be determined (off of win-losses and point differential) from November 24-26.
In December, the Irish will host Missouri in the ACC/SEC Challenge on December 2 before playing their final road non-conference game at TCU on December 5.
They close out their non-conference slate with three straight home games against Idaho (December 10), Evansville (December 13) and Purdue Fort Wayne (December 21). After a disappointing 2024-25 season, Notre Dame will look to rebound this coming year and hopefully make a return to the NCAA Tournament.
