Troy will play a home-and-home football series with Mississippi State in 2026-27, the school announced Wednesday.
The Trojans travel to Starkville, Miss., on Sept. 19, 2026. The return game at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Troy will take place Sept. 18, 2027.
"We are excited about this series and the opportunities it brings to our fan base and our football program," Troy athletics director Jeremy McClain said. "As we continue to position Troy as one of the top Group of Five programs in the country, these types of series will be crucial to our success. While these games are a few years down the road, we are excited about where we are heading as a football program and an athletics department.
