Oregon State will look to open the season with back-to-back wins on Friday, when Cal Baptist visits Gill Coliseum. The Beavers have started the last four seasons 2-0. Oregon State scored 102 points on Monday, the highest by the Beavers in a season opener since the 2012-13 season.
The Beavers are led by first-year head coach Justin Joyner, who won a national championship as an assistant coach with Michigan last season. Oregon State's 2026-27 roster features one returning player and 12 newcomers. Josiah Lake II is the only remaining Beaver player from the 2025-26 team. The guard was an All-WCC First Team selection last season.
Oregon State returns to the Pac-12 this season, after playing the prior two campaigns in the WCC. The new-look Pac-12 Conference also includes Gonzaga, Boise State, Washington State, Utah State, Colorado State, Texas State, Fresno State, and San Diego State. The Beavers' nonconference schedule will feature a home matchup with former conference foe Arizona State. Twenty-two of Oregon State's regular-season games will air on linear television.
Oregon State played three games this summer as part of a foreign tour in Canada. The Beavers started the trip with a win over Trinity Western and followed that up with a pair of victories over University of Victoria.
