STILLWATER, Okla. — Oklahoma State men's basketball will have plenty of opportunities to showcase its program on the national stage during the 2026-27 season.
The Cowboys officially announced their tipoff times and television assignments Tuesday, with all 32 regular-season games now finalized.
Oklahoma State will make 21 appearances across national television and Peacock, highlighted by two major-network broadcasts on FOX against Big 12 opponents Iowa State and Kansas.
The announcement comes as head coach Steve Lutz prepares for his third season leading the Cowboys, with expectations growing following a 20-win campaign and a second consecutive postseason appearance.
National Spotlight Shines on Big 12 Matchups
Oklahoma State's first FOX appearance comes Jan. 9 when the Cowboys travel to Iowa State for a 1 p.m. CT tipoff.
Three weeks later, OSU visits Kansas on Jan. 30 at 11:30 a.m. CT, giving the program another nationally televised opportunity against one of the conference's premier opponents.
The Cowboys will also make eight appearances across ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU, five on CBS Sports Network, two on TNT, two on FS1 and two on Peacock.
Among the notable home matchups, Oklahoma State welcomes TCU on Jan. 23 at 3 p.m. CT on TNT before hosting Texas Tech on Jan. 27 at 8 p.m. CT on Peacock.
Another major conference showdown arrives Feb. 16 when Arizona visits Gallagher-Iba Arena for an 8 p.m. CT contest on ESPN or ESPN2.
The remaining 11 games will stream on ESPN platforms, including 10 on ESPN+ and a Nov. 12 road matchup against Texas A&M on SEC Network+.
Bedlam and Nonconference Games Highlight December
Before Big 12 play begins, Oklahoma State has several noteworthy nonconference matchups.
The Cowboys host Saint Mary's on Dec. 5 at 2:15 p.m. CT on TNT. One week later, Bedlam returns to Oklahoma City as Oklahoma State faces Oklahoma on Dec. 12 at 1:30 p.m. CT on ESPN2. That game follows the Cowgirls' Bedlam matchup earlier in the day, creating a basketball doubleheader between the in-state rivals.
Oklahoma State will also face Minnesota and Virginia Tech during the Charleston Classic in November, with both games scheduled for ESPN networks.
Cowboys Prepare for New Season
The upcoming season presents an opportunity for Lutz and the Cowboys to build on last year's progress. Oklahoma State enters the campaign with the Big 12's top-ranked transfer portal class according to On3 and a consensus top-10 high school signing class.
The Cowboys open their regular season Nov. 2 against Incarnate Word at Gallagher-Iba Arena. Tipoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. CT on ESPN+.
With a challenging Big 12 schedule and numerous national television opportunities ahead, Oklahoma State will have plenty of chances to make a statement during Lutz's third season in Stillwater.
