California's 2021-22 men's basketball schedule was finalized Wednesday as the Pac-12 Conference announced its full television package, game dates and tip-off times. The Golden Bears will play 31 regular-season contests, including 25 on the Pac-12 Network, three on FS1 and two on ESPNU.
Cal's full schedule can be viewed here.
Following a non-televised exhibition against Cal State LA at 6 p.m. on Nov. 1, the Bears will open the 2021-22 regular season at home vs. UC San Diego at 2 p.m. on Nov. 9 on the Pac-12 Network. The season opener will be one of 12 contests featured during a 10-hour tip-off marathon on the Pac-12 Networks, marking Year 10 of the network's men's basketball coverage.
Both of the Bears' games at the Rocket Mortgage Fort Myers Tip-Off – vs. Florida at 5:30 p.m. PT on Nov. 22 and vs. Ohio State or Seton Hall at 3/5:30 p.m. PT on Nov. 24 – will be televised on FS1. The neutral-site contests will be played at Suncoast Credit Union Arena on the campus of Florida SouthWestern State College in Fort Myers.
After non-conference play concludes with four consecutive home games at Haas Pavilion on Dec. 8-22, Cal will kick off the new year on the road at rival Stanford on Jan. 2 at 4 p.m. on the Pac-12 Network. The Bears will then play their third FS1-broadcasted game of the season four days later when they host USC on Jan. 6 at 8 p.m. in Berkeley.
Cal's pair of games on ESPNU come against Arizona State at home on Jan. 19 (8 p.m.) and on the road at Oregon State on Feb. 9 (8 p.m.).
A three-game homestand from Feb. 17-26 against Colorado, Utah and Stanford – all televised on the Pac-12 Network – will wrap up the Bears' 18-game regular-season home slate at Haas Pavilion. The regular season closes with a trip to the Arizona schools on March 3-5.
Las Vegas' T-Mobile Arena will serve as host of the Pac-12 Men's Basketball Tournament for the sixth consecutive year from March 9-12. The tournament championship game will move to FOX for the first time, while first round, quarterfinal and semifinal action will be featured on the Pac-12 Network and FS1.
