As part of its 2025-26 men's basketball schedule, Pitt will host Ohio State Nov. 28 in a non-conference matchup at the Petersen Events Center.
The Panthers posted a dramatic 91-90 overtime win over the Buckeyes in the first game of the home-and-home series last season. Zack Austin was the hero in that matchup, burying a game-winning three-pointer with 0.4 seconds remaining.
Pitt has won the past three meetings between the two teams but trails the series history with Ohio State, 15-12. The Panthers will be hosting the Buckeyes for the first time since 2002 when they recorded a 69-49 win at the Petersen Events Center. This season's matchup will be just the third meeting between the two teams since the early 1960s.
