Nebraska men’s basketball releases upcoming non-conference schedule
LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – The Nebraska men’s basketball team announced their non-conference schedule on Monday for the 2024-25 season.
The schedule is highlighted by the team’s first trip to Hawaii in a decade for the Diamond Head Classic.
Nebraska will play three games in the Diamond Head Classic over Christmas week with games set for Dec. 22, 23 and 25.
The eight-team field includes Charlotte, College of Charleston, Hawai’i, Loyola Chicago, Murray State, Oakland and Oregon State.
The bracket will be released later this summer.

Nebraska will also take on two NCAA Tournament regulars with St. Mary’s on Nov. 17 and Creighton on Nov. 22.
“This schedule will help us get ready for Big Ten Conference play,” Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg said. “Playing at Creighton and against St. Mary’s in a neutral site will give our team two early tests that we can learn a lot from, and the Diamond Head Classic field will give us three more games against high quality competition away from home before we resume conference play in January.”
The Huskers released the rest of their schedule in a post on X.
