The best printable Xavier basketball schedule right now is one you make yourself from the official men’s basketball schedule on goxavier.com, because as of October 13, 2026 we could not find an official Xavier-issued PDF for 2026-27. Below is everything confirmed so far, what is still TBD, and a quick way to turn the official page into a clean one-page PDF.

What Xavier has officially confirmed

Xavier Athletics released its 2026-27 non-conference schedule on July 22, 2026. According to the official announcement, the slate includes exhibition games plus 12 non-conference regular season games. Richard Pitino is entering his second season as head coach.

Here are the dates named in the release and in Local 12’s coverage:

Date (2026)OpponentSite / note
Wed, Oct. 7Dayton (exhibition)CareSource Invitational, Cintas Center
Fri, Oct. 23Kent State (exhibition)Cintas Center

Mon, Nov. 2Mount St. Mary’sCintas Center, season opener
Fri, Nov. 13Mississippi StateGreenbrier Tip-Off
Fri, Nov. 20IowaCintas Center
Nov. 25-27Battle 4 AtlantisParadise Island, Bahamas
Sat, Dec. 5CincinnatiCrosstown Shootout, at Cincinnati

The October 7 exhibition against Dayton has already been played by the time of writing, so you can leave it off a printout meant for the rest of the season.

The Battle 4 Atlantis question mark

When Xavier released its schedule in July, it said its two Battle 4 Atlantis opponents would be announced later. Reports on the tournament field place Xavier in a bracket group with Marquette, Texas A&M and Virginia, and the event runs Nov. 25-27 on ESPN platforms. We did not find an Xavier source confirming the exact matchups, so treat any printed Atlantis opponents as provisional until goxavier.com lists them.

The Big East schedule

The Big East released its 2026-27 conference schedule on Monday, Sept. 14, 2026. Conference play is a 20-game double round-robin that starts in December and runs into early March, per the 2026-27 Big East season summary.

We could not access Xavier’s own full conference listing while writing this, but other schools’ official schedule announcements confirm some Xavier dates:

For the remaining conference games, use the schedule page on goxavier.com or the Big East’s own site rather than a copied list.

Official vs. third-party printable schedules

Several sites offer ready-made Xavier schedule PDFs or images. They can be convenient, but they are not maintained by Xavier.

OptionProsCons
goxavier.com schedule page, printed or saved as PDFOfficial, updated as times and TV are addedFormatting depends on your browser
Third-party printable PDFs/JPGsClean one-page designCan lag behind or conflict with official info; times often TBD
Big East and opponent schools’ releasesGood for cross-checking conference datesOnly covers one team’s matchups at a time

At least one third-party PDF we reviewed listed late-November games that Xavier itself had not yet confirmed, and tip times on these sheets were mostly TBD. That does not mean they are wrong, just that you should not rely on them alone.

How to make your own printable PDF

Because the official schedule is a web page rather than a PDF, the most reliable printout is one you create from it. These steps work in any modern desktop browser.

  1. Open the men’s basketball schedule page on goxavier.com (it sits under the men’s basketball section of the site).
  2. If the page offers a list or text view of the schedule, switch to it. List views usually print more compactly than card or grid layouts.
  3. Press Ctrl+P (Windows) or Cmd+P (Mac) to open the print dialog.
  4. Under Destination or Printer, choose Save as PDF (Chrome, Edge) or use the PDF menu (Safari on Mac).
  5. Open More settings and turn off headers and footers, set scale to fit, and choose landscape if columns are cut off.
  6. Preview the pages, then save. Name the file with today’s date, for example xavier-mbb-2026-27-oct13.pdf, so you know which version you have.

Keep the printout current

Tip times and TV channels for most games were still TBD in the sources we checked as of mid-October 2026. A few habits help:

  • Reprint after major updates, such as when Atlantis matchups or conference tip times are posted.
  • Pencil in times rather than writing them permanently until they are announced.
  • Before a game you plan to attend, check the official page once more on the day; times and broadcast partners can move.

Quick checklist before you print

  • Is every date from goxavier.com or another official school or conference release?
  • Have you removed games that are already played, like the Oct. 7 Dayton exhibition?
  • Are Battle 4 Atlantis opponents marked as provisional if Xavier has not confirmed them?
  • Did you note the date you printed it?

If you follow that, your sheet will be more accurate than most of the ready-made PDFs floating around, and it takes about two minutes to refresh whenever Xavier adds tip times.
