ODU Adds a Road Football Game at Liberty in 2023; Will be Fifth Meeting Between FBS In-State Rivals

Old Dominion and Liberty universities have announced that their football teams will meet on Oct. 7, 2023 in Lynchburg.

The schools have signed a one-game contract that calls for ODU to receive an $800,000 guarantee. It will be the fifth game played between the two Virginia schools. ODU won in Norfolk in 2013 and lost at Liberty last season.

The Monarchs and Flames have a two-game, home-and-home series that begins in 2021 with a game at Liberty and ends in 2022 with a game in Norfolk.

ODU and Liberty are relative newcomers to the Football Bowl Subdivision.
