Dates and kickoff times are subject to change based on TV designation and the Big 12’s Football Friday selections.

Games That Will Decide Arizona State’s Season

Sept 12 at Texas A&M Kyle Field against a top-10 Aggies team in Week 2, with a transatlantic flight waiting the following week. As tests go, this one is stacked.
Sept 19 vs Kansas (London) The Union Jack Classic at Wembley, and the Big 12 conference opener for both programs. A league game decided in England, with a bye week afterward to recover.
Oct 31 at BYU Halloween in Provo against last season’s Big 12 runner-up, one week after Kansas State. The hardest two-week stretch on the schedule.
Nov 28 at Arizona The Territorial Cup closes the regular season in Tucson. The oldest rivalry trophy in college football, and often the game that defines the year in Tempe.
A Conference Game in England
The Kansas game at Wembley counts in the Big 12 standings. ASU’s non-conference date with Hawaii was pushed to Oct 10 specifically to accommodate the London trip.
Tempe Is a Fortress
Arizona State is 11-2 over its last two seasons at Mountain America Stadium, with every 2025 home game a sellout and eight consecutive sellouts dating back to 2024.
A Replacement Opener
Morgan State was scheduled after Bowling Green backed out of a previously arranged game. Sept 5 is ASU’s latest season opener since 2015.

How the Schedule Sets Up

The opening month is genuinely strange: a tune-up against Morgan State, a trip to College Station, then a flight to London for a conference game, then a bye. Arizona State doesn’t play at home again for nearly a month after the opener. October is where the season gets decided — Baylor and Hawaii at home, then Texas Tech on the road, Kansas State at home, and BYU in Provo on Halloween. Three of those five are against likely ranked opponents. November is more forgiving, with Colorado and Oklahoma State in Tempe around a trip to Orlando, before the Territorial Cup in Tucson. Six home games is on the low side, and the travel is unusual, but the home slate is winnable. For the postseason picture, here’s how the College Football Playoff works under the 12-team format. Overseas games are becoming more common across the NCAA FBS as conferences chase international audiences.

The Bottom Line

Six home games, a Big 12 conference game at Wembley Stadium, Halloween in Provo, and the Territorial Cup to close — Kenny Dillingham’s fourth Arizona State schedule is the most well-traveled of his tenure. Bookmark this page; times, networks, and results are updated throughout the season.
