Arizona Wildcats football scheduled a home-and-home series against former Pac-12 counterpart Washington State, the two programs announced on Friday.
The first matchup is set for Sep. 26, 2026, in Pullman, and the second will be played at Arizona Stadium on Sept. 25, 2027.
Arizona last faced Washington State during the 2023 season, the former’s final year in the Pac-12. The Wildcats crushed the Cougars in Pullman during that most recent matchup, 44-6, behind 343 passing yards from quarterback Noah Fifita — who is returning to Arizona in 2025. They own the all-time series lead 28-19 (13-8 on the road).
