October 10, 2026
7:00 AM - 7:00 PM
Syracuse returns to Charlottesville for the first time since 2015, renewing a matchup that hasn’t been played since 2022 as UVA and the Orange meet again. The two schools have met only twice as members of the ACC – in 2015 and 2022. The 2015 meeting stands as the second-longest game in UVA history, a 44-38 triple-overtime thriller. It ended with a three-yard touchdown by Jordan Ellis in a Homecoming showdown at Scott Stadium. The Orange finished with a disappointing 3-9 (1-7 ACC) record last season and are just one year removed from a 10-win campaign in 2024. In 2024, SU head coach Fran Brown, now in his third season, was the recipient of both the Paul “Bear” Bryant Newcomer Coach of the Year and Steve Spurrier First-Year Coach Awards.
Go Hoos!
