Arizona State University has added the University of Wisconsin from the Big Ten Conference to its future football schedules, Sun Devil Director of Athletics Gene Smith announced Wednesday.

The Sun Devils will travel to Madison on Saturday, Sept. 18, 2010 while the Badgers return to Tempe on Saturday, September 15, 2012.

ASU holds a series record edge of 2-0 versus Wisconsin, winning 42-16 in 1967 at Madison and 55-7 in 1968 at Tempe.

Arizona State has ventured into the Big Ten for football games lately as it is in the middle of a series with Iowa (2004) and has Northwestern (2004 and 2005) and Illinois (2011 and 2012) in future years.

"We are committed to bringing in the very best football teams that we can schedule," says Smith. "Wisconsin will provide a quality matchup for our fans and for the television networks. Wisconsin is a very nice addition to our future schedules, which already include Notre Dame, Colorado, Brigham Young, Illinois and Northwestern, among others."
