MARTIN, Tenn. – The University of Tennessee at Martin football team will close out the home portion of its 2026 schedule on Saturday, Nov. 14, when the Skyhawks welcome OVC foe Lindenwood to Hardy M. Graham Stadium for a loaded afternoon of celebration and recognition. Kickoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPN+.
UT Martin will show its appreciation for our active duty and military veterans by providing complimentary admission in conjunction with Veterans Day and its Military Appreciation Game. In addition to the program's additional military programming throughout the contest – the game will feature a pregame flyover and ROTC Contracting Ceremony. The program will also celebrate the 2006 OVC championship team with a 20-year reunion and recognition at halftime.
The Skyhawks are slated to recognize the team's 16 seniors and graduate students in pre-game ceremony, beginning at approximately 1:30 p.m. UT Martin will honor Kaleb Costner, Lamarion Pierce, Kaleb Washington, Julian Calvez, Phaizon Wilson, Makhia Sherrard, Ant Fisher, Brylan Jordan, AJ Robinson Jr., Cam Robertson, Bryce Dailey, Eric Lane, Dolapo Egunjobi, Garrett Smith, Travis Gray and Dawson Adams-Grenier for their numerous accolades and achievements throughout their Skyhawk careers.
UT Martin (4-6, 3-2 OVC) enters its home finale looking to build momentum following a 20-10road victory over Charleston Southern last weekend. The win keeps the Skyhawks in title contention with two weeks to play, sitting just one game out of first place behind Lindenwood, Southeast Missouri and Western Illinois.
In last weekend's matchup, UT Martin limited Charleston Southern to just 248 yards of total offense. A pair of Skyhawks were honored by the league following the victory with quarterback Tate Surber being named OVC Rookie of the Week while place kicker Brandon Sims was tabbed OVC Special Teams Player of the Week. Surber posted the third-best completion percentage (87.5%) in program history and recorded a rushing touchdown while Sims booted a pair of 40-yard field goals (43 and 41 yards, respectively) to give the Skyhawks a second half cushion.
With the win, UT Martin head coach claimed another piece of OVC history with his 102nd conference victory. Simpson needs one more victory to take sole possession of second place on the all-time list, while currently sitting tied with former Austin Peay and Middle Tennessee head coach Boots Donnelly on the conference's all-time leaderboard.
Lindenwood (5-4, 4-1 OVC) heads into the matchup riding a four-game winning streak with victories over Eastern Illinois, Chicago State, Tennessee State and Gardner-Webb. The Lions currently sit in a three-way tie for first place with a 4-1 conference mark under the direction of head coach Jed Stugart. The squad boasts the league's second ranked scoring offense (24.6 ppg) on the season and top scoring defense in OVC action, allowing just 17.8 points per game.
This marks the fourth meeting between the two programs in its brief series history. UT Martin holds a 2-1 advantage in the all-time series which dates back to 2022 with Lindenwood's first season at the Division I level. The Skyhawks have won both matchups against the Lions in Martin, back in 2022 and 2024.
The game will be streamed exclusively on ESPN+ with Davis Gregory (play-by-play), John Hatler (analyst) and Chris Brinkley (analyst) calling the action. Locally fans can tune into the Skyhawk Sports Network with games broadcast on WCMT "Talk and News You Can Use!" and simulcast on 1410 AM, 100.5 FM, 92.7 FM, 96.1 FM, 99.7 FM and 103.3 FM.
