Cowboy Baseball Releases 2026 Schedule
October 15, 2025 | Cowboy Baseball
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State's 2026 baseball schedule includes 55 games, highlighted by 28 home contests and five Big 12 Conference series at O'Brate Stadium.
The Cowboys are coming off a 30-25 season in which they made their 12th consecutive NCAA Regional appearance, the nation's fourth-longest streak, and advanced to the NCAA Athens Regional final. The NCAA Regional berth was the 50th in program history, which is the third most in NCAA history.
OSU returns five position players who started at least 26 games last season as well as two of its top three winningest pitchers from a year ago.
Head coach Josh Holliday has put together another challenging non-conference slate highlighted by a season-opening trip to Texas for the Shriners Children's College Showdown. Last season, OSU finished No. 44 in the NCAA RPI, and its strength of schedule ranked 13th nationally.
OSU will once again open its season at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, as part of the Shriners Children's College Showdown field Feb. 13-15. The Pokes will take on Arkansas in the season opener before facing Oklahoma and Vanderbilt to conclude the weekend.
Following the gauntlet of opening weekend, the Cowboys will head to Phoenix for a four-game series with Grand Canyon, a perennial NCAA tourney team, Feb. 19-22.
OSU's home opener is scheduled for Feb. 24 against Central Arkansas and will be the first in a nine-game homestand at O'Brate Stadium that also includes contests against Sam Houston State, Missouri State, Gardner-Webb and Dallas Baptist.
The Pokes open Big 12 play with a trip to Orlando, Fla., to take on UCF March 13-15. OSU will also face BYU (March 26-28), Kansas State (April 10-12), Texas Tech (April 24-26) and Arizona State (May 8-10) in conference road series.
Holliday's ballclub will play host to Baylor (March 20-22), Cincinnati (April 3-5), Kansas (April 17-19), TCU (May 1-3) and Arizona (May 14-16) in league play.
Other highlights of OSU's non-conference slate include home-and-away games with both Missouri State and Dallas Baptist, three showdowns with Oral Roberts, including a showdown at ONEOK Field in Tulsa on May 12, and a Bedlam battle against Oklahoma in Norman on April 14.
This year's Big 12 Tournament moves to Surprise, Ariz. for the first time, where the title will be on the line at Surprise Stadium May 20-23.
NCAA Regional play begins May 29, with Super Regionals being held June 5-8. The 2026 Men's College World Series is scheduled for June 12-22 at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Neb.
