Nebraska men’s basketball will take on Missouri at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City on December 12. Tickets will go on sale in July 2026. There has not been a time or network announced yet.
Missouri leads the all-time series, which dates back to 1908, 126-95. This will be the first game between the schools in more than 15 years.
They last met in March 2011, when Nebraska won by a score of 69-58 in Lincoln. Missouri is coming off an appearance in the round of 64, while Nebraska is looking to build on a Sweet 16 appearance last season.
Coach Fred Hoiberg is excited to renew the rivalry with an old Big Eight rival.
“This is a matchup our fans will be excited about because of the history between the two programs over the years,” Nebraska Coach Fred Hoiberg said. “Coach (Dennis) Gates has a team that could challenge in the SEC this season, and this will provide us a strong test right after we finish our Big Ten December schedule. Playing this matchup in Kansas City brings back a lot of memories of old conference matchups, and I believe our fans will make this a great neutral-site environment.”
