Sources - Kansas, Arizona State discussing '26 game in London - ESPN

Kansas and Arizona State are in discussions about moving next season's matchup to London's Wembley Stadium, sources confirmed to ESPN on Thursday.

The Post and Courier was first to report the matchup potentially moving to London.

The Big 12 has prioritized expanding its international footprint under commissioner Brett Yormark, who is looking to grow the conference's brand and relevance overseas and provide new student-athlete experiences with the long-term aim of potentially monetizing international TV rights.

The Baylor women's basketball team will open its upcoming season on Nov. 3 against Duke at Adidas Arena in Paris as part of the Oui-Play Paris event. The conference is also working on putting together an Olympic sports competition in Mexico, a source told ESPN.

Kansas-Arizona State would be the second college football game played in the United Kingdom. In 1988, Richmond defeated Boston University 20-17 in the Imperial Bowl at the Crystal Palace
