Houston hosts Oklahoma in 2028 at TDECU Stadium as part of two-game agreement
HOUSTON – University of Houston Football and Oklahoma have agreed to a future non-conference series highlighted by an on-campus matchup at TDECU Stadium on Sept. 16, 2028, the schools announced Friday.
Â
The two-game series begins Sept. 7, 2024, when Houston visits Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. The matchup will be the fifth all-time between the programs and third in the last nine seasons. The #15/13 Cougars knocked off #3/3 Oklahoma, 33-23, on Sept. 3, 2016, at NRG Stadium. Houston fell 49-31 to #4/4 Oklahoma in its season opener on Sept. 1, 2019, in Norman, Okla.
Â
"This is a great series and frankly, this doesn't happen without the transition we're making," Houston Vice President for Athletics Chris Pezman said. "The elevation and status of program allows us to play games like this. In 2027, you have LSU at NRG Stadium, and you get Oklahoma here at TDECU Stadium in 2028. You're going to see a lot more of this coming as we continue to work on our future schedule."Â
