On Friday morning, UNC officially announced its 2025-26 non-conference basketball schedule.
Many of the matchups had already been individually announced and reported, but the Tar Heels now have their full slate for the early portion of their season, with dates included.
After opening with Central Arkansas, North Carolina will embark in something it did last season, square off with Kansas on the first Friday of the regular season. This time though, that marquee matchup will be in Chapel Hill. After falling in dramatic fashion in 2024, Seth Trimble and the Tar Heels will look to land a quality win early on.
