MU has previously announced a home-and-home series with Purdue that will start at Fiserv Forum next season. The Golden Eagles’ rivalry game with Wisconsin will also be at home next season.

Other non-conference games that have been revealed include a Big East-Big 12 Battle matchup at Iowa State and a neutral court game against Georgia in the Bahamas.

Both MU and Maryland are likely preseason top 25 teams.

The Terrapins, coached by Kevin Willard, did not make the NCAA Tournament last season but return star forward Julian Reese and are adding a five-star recruit in big man Derik Queen.
