Duke’s Full Non-Conference Schedule After ACC/SEC Challenge Release

The Duke basketball program has added another elite matchup to its already stellar non-conference schedule.

The matchups for the 2026 ACC/SEC Challenge were released, and the Blue Devils will take on Florida for the second consecutive year. In 2025-26, the Gators came to Cameron Indoor Stadium, where Duke won in a thriller, 67-66. This time around, Duke will make the trip to Gainesville.

This is the latest of several high-profile contests the Blue Devils will face on their non-con slate this upcoming season. Duke boasted the best overall resume in college basketball last season, and with this slate, it has a chance to match that once again.

Jon Scheyer’s club will face three of last season’s Final Four squads, and both that competed in the National Championship. Duke will face reigning national champ Michigan, but the contest has been moved from Madison Square Garden to loanDepot Park, home of the Miami Marlins.

Duke will still have a game at Madison Square Garden next season, taking on Georgia as part of the Jimmy V Classic.
