The Sun Devils will open next season against SEC power Texas A&M in Houston on Sept. 5, followed by two more non-conference games at home when they host Cal Poly and New Mexico.
This will be the first time that ASU has played an SEC team since traveling to play Missouri in 2012 in the Tigers' first season in the conference.
ASU will open the Pac-12 schedule by welcoming in USC on Sep. 26, followed by a trip to Pasadena, California the next weekend to play Pac-12 South foe UCLA.
The Sun Devils will replace Pac-12 North teams Stanford and Oregon State next season with Oregon and Cal due to the nine conference games that are played each season. ASU will play Oregon for the first time since the Blackout game in 2012 when the Ducks travel to Tempe on Thursday, Oct. 29, the only weeknight game on the schedule.
The Sun Devils will play four Pac-12 games at home in 2015, ending the home schedule with Washington and the Territorial Cup game against UA on Nov. 21. It will not be the last game of the season as it has been since 2011, when the Sun Devils ended the year with Cal, like they will in 2015 season in Berkeley on Nov. 28.
