SAN FRANCISCO – The Pac-12 Conference announced today its 2015 football schedule that pairs a competitive nine-game Conference schedule with a non-conference slate that includes five contests against teams currently ranked in the Associated Press Top 25 – No. 6 Texas A&M, No. 9 Notre Dame (2), No. 11 Michigan State, and No. 21 BYU.  In all, nearly a third of the Pac-12’s non-conference schedule pits the league against a Power 5 conference opponent, including five contests against the Big Ten Conference.

In addition, traditional rivalry games will be played over the last two weeks of the season, followed by the Pac-12 Football Championship Game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on either Friday, December 4 or Saturday, December 5.

The 2015 season is scheduled to get under way with a pair of games on Thursday, September 3, as ARIZONA hosts UTSA, and UTAH hosts Michigan, followed by a neutral site showdown between ARIZONA STATE and Texas A&M on Saturday, September 5. The second week of the season will feature three road matchups with the Big Ten as WASHINGTON STATE visits Rutgers and the Oregon schools make the trek to the Great Lakes State where OREGON takes on Michigan State, while OREGON STATE meets Michigan.

Every football game played at Pac-12 sites will be televised. A combination of the ESPN channels, ABC, FOX and FOX Sports 1 will broadcast 44 games nationally and Pac-12 Networks will offer 34 games to a national audience. Exact broadcast schedules will be determined at a later date.

The 2015 Conference schedule features six games on five Thursday night dates that includes key league matchups between WASHINGTON at USC on October 8, UCLA at STANFORD on October 15, CALIFORNIA at UCLA on October 22, and OREGON at ARIZONA STATE on October 29. In addition, the schedule’s four games on three Friday dates feature STANFORD at OREGON STATE on September 25, USC at COLORADO on November 13, OREGON STATE at OREGON in the Civil War and WASHINGTON STATE at WASHINGTON in the Apple Cup the day after Thanksgiving on Friday, November 27.

The decision was made to schedule the cross-division ARIZONA STATE at CALIFORNIA game on the final week of the 2015 season in keeping with the terms of scheduling commitments approved by the Pac-12 Directors of Athletics to maintain the late-season games between Stanford/USC and Notre Dame.
