Pitt Panthers add a historic showdown to their 2026-27 schedule, facing Penn State at the legendary Palestra in Philly — the venue celebrating its 100th anniversary. This marks the 150th all-time meeting, with Penn State holding a slight edge, but Pitt has dominated recently, winning six of the last seven. Both teams are rebuilding with major transfer portal moves — Penn State added six, Pitt eleven — as they prepare for a crucial early-season test. Pitt’s non-conference slate also includes the Backyard Brawl vs. WVU, a Villanova home game, and matchups in the ACC/SEC Challenge and Fort Myers Tip-Off.
