The UCLA men's basketball program will open its Pac-12 schedule next season with games in early December at Oregon and at home against California, as announced by the Pac-12 Conference on Wednesday.
 
Earlier this year, the Pac-12 had agreed to transition to a 20-game conference schedule, beginning with the 2020-21 men's basketball season. The 12 additional Pac-12 contests have been slotted into windows in November and December, as recommended by the Pac-12 Council and Athletics Directors' Committee upon approval of the 20-game schedule in spring 2019.
 
Below are the matchups that will be added, with one home and one away game for each team.
 
Sunday, Nov. 29, 2020 – Stanford at USC
Wednesday, Dec. 2, 2020 – Colorado at Arizona; Oregon State at Washington State
Thursday, Dec. 3, 2020 – Arizona State at California; UCLA at Oregon; Washington at Utah
Saturday, Dec. 5, 2020 – Washington State at Colorado; USC at Oregon State
Sunday, Dec. 6, 2020 – Utah at Arizona State; California at UCLA; Oregon at Washington
Saturday, Dec. 19, 2020 – Arizona at Stanford
 
The Pac-12's added games and dates were selected based on the single-play opponents from the league's current rotational model, and on availability based on prior non-conference schedules and academic calendars.
 
The remainder of the conference's schedule will be determined based on the current rotation model (see below), which completes its 10-year cycle at the conclusion of the 2020-21 season. The determination of future schedule rotations will be announced at a later date.
 
Looking at the Bruins' non-conference schedule for 2020-21, UCLA will play in the two-day, four-team Paycom Wooden Legacy at the Anaheim Convention Center during the week of Thanksgiving. The other three teams in that field include Georgetown, Kansas and Virginia. Matchups and game dates will be announced at a later date.
 
In addition, UCLA announced in August that the Bruins will play a home-and-home series with Marquette, beginning in Dec. 2020. UCLA's home game against Marquette next season will take place on Saturday, Dec. 12. The Bruins will return to face Marquette at Fiserv Forum (Milwaukee, Wisc.) in November or December of 2021.
