MIAMI — FIU's men's basketball program announced its non-conference slate on Tuesday afternoon, finalizing its full list of games for the upcoming 2025-26 season. 

The Panthers' non-conference schedule features 11 contests, of which includes several marquee matchups, as FIU builds towards Conference USA (CUSA) play on Dec. 28. The Panthers will take on three power-four opponents and host several other strong mid-major programs in non-conference action. 

FIU's 2025-26 season will begin on Monday, Nov. 3 as the Panthers take on Fla. National at home. FIU then makes its first road trip of the season, embarking on a two-game road swing with power-four competition, playing at Nebraska (Nov. 8) and at LSU (Nov. 13). 

The Panthers return to the Ocean Bank Convocation Center for five-straight contests following the trip to Lincoln and Baton Rouge, first hosting University of Fort Lauderdale on Tuesday, Nov. 18. FIU will then host a Multi-Team Event over the Thanksgiving holiday, welcoming James Madison (Nov. 24) and 2024 NCAA Tournament-participant Omaha (Nov. 26) to 'the 305'. 

FIU concludes its homestand with Sunshine State opponents FGCU (Dec. 3) and Jacksonville (Dec. 6). The Panthers will then have 10 days between games before a tilt in Coral Gables against crosstown rival Miami on Dec. 16. 

The non-conference slate wraps up with two more home contests as FIU hosts LIU (Dec. 20) and Trinity (Dec. 22) before the holidays. The Panthers will then take on their CUSA schedule, beginning with three home games against Liberty (Dec. 28), New Mexico State (Jan. 2) and UTEP (Jan. 4).
