Portland State's non-conference basketball schedule has been completed, and Viking fans will be able to see PSU play eight times in the Portland area in the months of November and December.
 
In addition to the 18-game Big Sky Conference schedule, the Vikings will play 13 non-conference games, highlighted by Phil Knight Legacy Tournament during Thanksgiving weekend. A total of 17 of PSU's 31 games will take place in Portland.
 
PSU opens at University of Portland on Nov. 11, followed by a quick trip to Seattle University on Nov. 13.
 
The Vikings host Evergreen State in a home opener on Nov. 16, then travel to Oregon State on Nov. 19.
 
The prestigious Phil Knight Legacy 2022 takes place at the Rose Quarter, Nov. 24-27. The Vikings open with Gonzaga on Thanksgiving night, then will play on Friday and Sunday. Other possible opponents include Purdue, West Virginia, Duke, Oregon State, Florida and Xavier.
 
The final month of non-conference games includes two at home against Portland Bible (Nov. 30) and Air Force (Dec. 3). The following week includes a trip to Cal Poly (Dec. 10) and Santa Clara (Dec. 13).
 
PSU comes home to host UC Santa Barbara on Dec. 17 and closes out non-conference play at California Baptist on Dec. 22.
 
The Big Sky Conference schedule is changed from previous seasons. Now a 10-team league, the schedule has moved to an 18-game double-round robin format. It had previously been 20 games, but Southern Utah has left the Big Sky to join the Western Athletic Conference.
 
League play now begins the week after Christmas with an almost exclusive Thursday-Saturday format. The only change is a season-finale Monday contest to accommodate an earlier start to the Big Sky Conference Tournament.
 
The Big Sky Tourney runs Mar. 4-8 at Boise's Idaho Central Arena. It will also have a change in format with first-round games (9 vs. 10 and 7 vs. 8) on Mar. 4. Games on Mar. 5 will include the top seed vs. the 9/10 winner and the number two seed vs. the 7/8 winner. On Mar. 6, games will feature 4 vs. 5 and 3 vs. 6. Winners of Mar. 5 and 6 games will meet in the semifinals on Mar. 7. The championship game takes place on Mar. 8.
