Ole Miss and the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) are finalizing a home-and-home football series that promises exciting matchups and a rare cross-regional rivalry. The series is set to begin with Ole Miss hosting Pitt at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, Mississippi, on September 5, 2026, which will also serve as the season opener for both programs.
The return game is expected to take place in Pittsburgh at Acrisure Stadium during the 2030 season. The lack of the date for the 2030 game seems to be the hold up on the official announcement.
This upcoming series builds on the programs’ only previous meeting, a 38-17 victory for Ole Miss in the 2013 BBVA Compass Bowl.
