All future games at ODU canceled - 2028 game in Blacksburg also canceled

Virginia Tech director of athletics Whit Babcock has announced the Hokies and Old Dominion have decided to renegotiate their agreements due to the changing nature of college football. Under the new agreement, the Hokies and Monarchs will meet in Blacksburg in 2025, 2026 and 2030. However, the two schools have agreed to cancel the 2028 game in Blacksburg, as well as matchups previously scheduled in Norfolk for 2027, 2029 and 2031.

"As we continue to evaluate and align our future non-conference schedules with the evolving landscape of college football, we've made a strategic decision—mutually agreed upon by both programs—to alter the number of games in the series," said Babcock. "We're grateful for the competitive games we've shared and we appreciate the flexibility and partnership from Old Dominion as we work to adapt in this new environment."

As part of the agreement, Virginia Tech has also committed to hosting a men's basketball game against Old Dominion in Blacksburg no later than the 2027–28 season.
