Lady Vols basketball's schedule for the 2026-27 season is set with tipoff times and TV designations for coach Kim Caldwell's third season.
Broadcast information and game times for Tennessee's full schedule were announced Oct. 7. The Lady Vols have 18 games televised, including five matchups on ESPN. The 15 games that won't be televised will be streamed on SEC Network+ and ESPN+.
Besides Tennessee's five games on ESPN, it'll have three on ESPN2, one on FOX, one on ESPNU and eight on SEC Network.
The Lady Vols don't have any games on ABC this season after having two regular-season matchups on the network last season. They also didn't have any regular-season ABC games during Caldwell's first season, and they didn't have any during the 2023-24 season.
The Lady Vols officially open the season at Foot City Center against Duquesne on Nov. 2 (6:30 p.m., SEC Network+). They'll play an exhibition on Oct. 27 against Florida A&M, which is coached by former Lady Vols star Bridgette Gordon.
