Nonconference games against Gonzaga, Washington, Tulsa and Rhode Island are also a part of the 30-game schedule announced Wednesday by the university.
Oklahoma State will face Gonzaga in the opening round of the Old Spice Classic in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., on Nov. 27. The Cowboys will face either Maryland or Michigan State the following day, and the Thanksgiving weekend tournament also features Georgetown, Siena, Tennessee and Wichita State.
The Big 12/Pac-10 Hardwood Series will take the Cowboys to Washington on Dec. 4, and Rhode Island will be Oklahoma State's opponent for the annual All-College Classic in Oklahoma City on Dec. 20.
Tulsa will be the featured nonconference home game, as the Nov. 20 contest will end a 12-year hiatus for the in-state rivalry.
The schedule also includes home games against North Texas on Nov. 17, Grambling State on Nov. 23 and Mercer on Dec. 17. A three-game homestand over the New Year's holiday period features home contests against Arkansas State on Dec. 29, Northwestern State on Jan. 3 and Savannah State on Jan. 6.
The Cowboys' second of two nonconference road games will be at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Dec. 14.
Big 12 play will begin Jan. 10, when Texas A&M visits Stillwater, and conclude with a Bedlam rivalry game at Oklahoma on March 7. The Bedlam game in Stillwater will be on Jan. 26.
Oklahoma State also has exhibition games scheduled against two NAIA schools, Rogers State on Nov. 5 and Langston on Nov. 8.
Oklahoma State finished 17-16 last season, after which Sean Sutton resigned under pressure as the Cowboys' coach.
