SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Wofford College has announced the 2022 football schedule, which features home games against Elon and Southern Conference foes Mercer, The Citadel, East Tennessee State and VMI, along with a road game at Virginia Tech.
 
The Terriers will open the season at Chattanooga on September 3. The Terriers lead the all-time series by a 15-13 margin, but the Mocs have won the last two meetings. On September 10, Wofford will host Elon at Gibbs Stadium to complete a home-and-home series that begin last season when the Terriers earned a 24-22 victory over the Phoenix.
 
On September 17, Wofford travels to Blacksburg to face Virginia Tech for the first time in school history. The Hokies, a member of the Southern Conference from 1921-1965, were 6-7 during the 2021 season and 4-4 in ACC play. They will have a new head coach, Brent Pry, for the 2022 campaign.
 
A trip to Kennesaw State on September 24 will complete a home-and-home series with the Owls. Kennesaw State, who is moving to the Atlantic Sun conference this season after competing in the Big South, have won all three previous meetings with the Terriers.
 
Wofford continues Southern Conference play on October 1 when Mercer visits Gibbs Stadium.
