Florida International's 2026 season
Florida International plays 12 regular-season games in 2026, 6 at home at Pitbull Stadium and 6 away, opening on Sep 5 and finishing on Nov 28. 8 of them are Conference USA games and 4 are not — which is the shape of a college season: a short non-conference run, most of it early, and then two months inside the conference. The longest run at home is 2 games, from Sep 26 to Oct 7; the longest run on the road is 2, from Nov 14 to Nov 21.
The non-conference games are against South Florida on Sep 5, Buffalo on Sep 12, Florida Atlantic on Sep 19, Long Island University on Sep 26. Those opponents are not in the Conference USA, so they do not appear as rows on the conference grid — a cell naming one carries a dotted underline there to say so. They are part of this team's season all the same, which is why they are on the grid at all rather than left as blank weeks.
Kick-off times are shown in your own timezone rather than US Eastern time — detected automatically, and overridable in the “Times in” control above. A Saturday-evening game in the United States is the small hours of Sunday morning across Europe, and a game that crosses midnight carries a +1 so it cannot be mistaken for the same evening. To see how Florida International's season compares with the rest of the conference — who has the harder stretch, and whose non-conference run is heaviest — the full Conference USA grid puts all 10 teams side by side.

Who does Florida International play outside the Conference USA in 2026?
4 games: South Florida on Sep 5, Buffalo on Sep 12, Florida Atlantic on Sep 19, Long Island University on Sep 26. Those opponents are not in the Conference USA, so they have no row of their own on the conference grid — they are marked there with a dotted underline, and named in full on this page.
What time do Florida International's games start in my timezone?
Every confirmed kick-off on this page is converted to the timezone your browser reports, with a manual override in the "Times in" control. College football is published in US Eastern time, so a Saturday-evening game there starts in the small hours of Sunday across Europe, and those carry a +1 mark.
