Arizona State and Kansas to play a football game in London next year in September

I found out from this Youtube video



From the video description: The Big 12 Conference today announced that Arizona State and Kansas will square off in the first-ever Union Jack Classic at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026.

I also found an article:

Arizona State, Kansas football to play Big 12 game at Wembley Stadium in 2026

The Big 12 conference is heading across the pond for American football in 2026.

The conference announced on Wednesday, Oct. 1 that Arizona State and Kansas will compete in the first-ever Union Jack Classic at historic Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026 as part of their Big 12 conference schedule.

"I’m thrilled that Big 12 football will be heading to London for the first-ever college football game at Wembley Stadium," Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark said in a statement. "I’ve often said my goal is for the Big 12 to be the most globally relevant conference in college athletics. Expanding our international presence will elevate our brand, create new opportunities for student-athletes, and open the door to meaningful commercial growth for the league."
