Bowling Green State University has released the men's basketball team's conference schedule for the 2025-26 season. The Falcons will compete in 18 Mid-American Conference (MAC) games, splitting them evenly between home and away contests. Information about non-conference opponents, game times, and television coverage will be announced at a later date.

"This is a schedule that our fans should be excited to see," said head coach Todd Simon. "There's no doubt we have one of the toughest MAC schedules in recent memory. We open with the top four teams from last season along with a trip to UMass to start conference play. Our guys will be challenged with 12 games against the seven other MAC Tournament teams along with two against new member UMass. We are excited for the journey to Cleveland for the MAC Tournament."

The team will begin its MAC slate on December 20 with an away game at Ohio in Athens, marking the first time since 2020-21 that conference play starts in December for Bowling Green. The Falcons' first home conference game is scheduled for December 30 against Miami (OH) at the Stroh Center.

In January, Bowling Green travels to UMass on January 3, which will be its first visit there as UMass joins the MAC. The team then heads to Kent State on January 6 before returning home to face Akron on January 10. Other notable matchups include hosting Eastern Michigan on January 17 and playing rivals Toledo in the Battle of I-75 on January 24.

The alternating pattern of home and away games continues through February, including hosting Buffalo on January 27 and Ball State on February 3. The Falcons will also participate in the second leg of the MAC-Sun Belt Challenge on February 7, with their opponent yet to be announced.

Following that event, Bowling Green resumes conference play at Northern Illinois University (NIU) on February 11 and returns home for games against Toledo (February 14) and Kent State (February 17). Additional road trips include a visit to Miami (OH) on February 21.

The closing stretch features back-to-back home games versus Western Michigan (February 24) and UMass (February 28), followed by an away contest at Eastern Michigan on March 6 to finish out regular season conference play.

Season tickets are currently available starting at $155, with early bird pricing ending September 9, 2025 at midnight EST. More details about premium seating can be found through BGSU's ticketing channels.
