Liberty Announces Completed 2026 Football Schedule

Liberty's 2026 football schedule is now complete with Conference USA releasing the Flames' eight conference games earlier today.

Last month, the Flames announced their four non-conference games, starting with the next addition of the Battle of the Blue Ridge against James Madison in Harrisonburg on September 5.

Liberty will then welcome Gardner-Webb (September 12) and Ball State (September 19) to Williams Stadium before playing a Thursday night game at Coastal Carolina (September 24).

The Flames will begin their quest to capture their second Conference USA title with a Friday night game at Delaware (October 2), followed by a Midweek on the Mountain game at home against Sam Houston on Thursday, October 8.

Liberty will close out midweek action on Wednesday, October 21 at defending Conference USA champion Kennesaw State.

Liberty's annual Homecoming and Hall of Fame weekend is slated for Saturday, October 31 when the Flames welcome FIU to the Mountain.

The closing stretch of the 2026 regular season will include road games at New Mexico State (November 7) and Missouri State (November 28) and home contests against Middle Tennessee (November 14) and Western Kentucky (November 21).

The 2026 Conference USA Football Championship is slated to be contested at the site of the regular season champion on Friday, December 4. The title game will once again be broadcast on CBS Sports Network.
