Summary
Gonzaga’s already brutal non-conference slate just got tougher as they’ll face Arkansas—led by Hall of Famer John Calipari—in a road showdown sometime in October 2026. This matchup pits Mark Few against his longtime friend and former Memphis boss, adding personal history to a game that also marks Arkansas as the second SEC team on Gonzaga’s preseason schedule. The last meeting in the 2022 Sweet Sixteen ended Gonzaga’s season and the college careers of stars Chet Holmgren and Andrew Nembhard, making this rematch even more electric. With games already set against Purdue, Michigan State, Duke, and potential appearances at the Players Era Festival, Gonzaga is stacking their schedule with elite competition to build resume depth. With only 16 Pac-12 games, they’re clearly building for a championship-caliber season—one that doesn’t shy away from hostile arenas or legendary coaches.
