The Marquette Golden Eagles men's basketball team will face the reigning national champion Michigan Wolverines on November 11, 2026, at the Crisler Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan. This matchup is part of a previously reported home-and-home series, with the date for the return game at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee yet to be determined. Michigan had an impressive 2025-26 season, finishing with a record of 37-3 and defeating Connecticut in the national championship game. The Wolverines are likely to return three of their top five scorers: Morez Johnson Jr., Elliot Cadeau, and Trey McKenney, while also adding J.P. Estrella from the transfer portal and a strong recruiting class. Meanwhile, Marquette is looking to bounce back from a challenging season with a 12-20 record, relying on a core group of players including Nigel James Jr., Adrien Stevens, and Royce Parham, and seeking to strengthen their roster through the transfer portal.
