Pitt and Penn State are scheduled to square off at Heinz Field on Sept. 8 in what could be the final matchup between the intrastate rivals in the city of Pittsburgh until sometime after 2030, and on Tuesday, Pitt athletic director Heather Lyke announced that the game had sold out.
“We are officially sold out for the game on Saturday, Sept. 8,” Lyke told Jerry DiPaola of the Tribune-Review. “We all know it’s going to be an incredible 99th game of this rivalry. … I think it’s going to be an extraordinary night for the students at Pitt to be a part of that electric atmosphere.
