Northwestern’s basketball team is gearing up for a tough but promising 2026 season, with Coach Chris Collins reshaping the roster through fresh talent and strategic matchups. The non-conference slate kicks off with early November games against Binghamton and Stony Brook, followed by the Charleston Classic, neutral-site showdowns with BYU and Oklahoma State, and a strong home stretch capped by a late December tilt against Chicago State — all designed to build momentum before the grueling Big Ten schedule. Facing powerhouse teams like Illinois, Michigan, and Michigan State in one of the nation’s most stacked conferences, Northwestern will rely on chemistry, grit, and Collins’ knack for developing overlooked players. With every game a chance to earn their tournament spot, this season’s path is anything but easy — but the Wildcats are ready to fight for it.
