So... if the days were longer ie 28 hours. Would we adapt to them based on sunlight? Like, stay awake for 18hours and sleep for 10hours?

An hour is actually the degree of movement (rotation) on an axis (15 degrees). So a day can not be 28 hours long.
No doubt we would adapt, but at what long term impact to our total health is unknown. For the present cycle it appears we need about 1/3 of our time in deep sleep to be healthy. But there is a limit at which the human body mind can not function at optimum levels. Where that point is I am not positive.
