伦敦将于下月在温布利球场举办“Union Jack Classic”美国大学橄榄球海外常规赛，由Big 12联盟的亚利桑那州立大学对阵堪萨斯大学 1。该球场容量超过86000人，组织者设定的现场观众目标为60000人，并预计约有15000名球迷从美国前往观赛 1。为此，组织者不仅与温布利球场签署了多年合同，还专门租用两架波音777客机供每支球队使用 1。
在伦敦赛事推进的同时，都柏林的“Aer Lingus College Football Classic”已成为年度赛事，本周六将由TCU对阵北卡罗来纳大学，2027年的对阵双方则确定为匹兹堡大学与威斯康星大学 1。组织者计划将此类赛事扩展至更多欧洲地区，并曾考虑在巴西、德国和沙特阿拉伯等地办赛 1。不过，受缺乏赞助等因素影响，部分计划未能成行，如弗吉尼亚大学原计划在里约热内卢对阵N.C. State的比赛已改回夏洛茨维尔，密歇根大学曾考虑在德国法兰克福对阵西密歇根大学，最终留在安娜堡 1。
London is set to become the next host city for an American college football regular-season game in Europe, following Dublin 1. Next month, the Union Jack Classic will feature a matchup between Big 12 Conference schools Arizona State University and the University of Kansas at Wembley Stadium 1. The venue, which has a capacity of over 86,000, has an organizer target of 60,000 attendees, with approximately 15,000 supporters expected to travel from the United States for the event 1. To facilitate the trip, organizers have chartered two Boeing 777 aircraft, one for each team 1. Furthermore, the organizers have secured a multi-year contract with Wembley Stadium for future events 1.
Meanwhile, the Aer Lingus College Football Classic in Dublin has become an annual event 1. This Saturday, the Dublin event will feature a game between TCU and the University of North Carolina 1. Looking ahead, the 2027 Dublin matchup is scheduled to pit the University of Pittsburgh against the University of Wisconsin 1.
Organizers are also exploring plans to expand college football games to additional European locations, as well as considering venues in Brazil, Germany, and Saudi Arabia 1. However, some of these international initiatives have fallen through due to a lack of sponsorship and other factors 1. For instance, a planned game between the University of Virginia and N.C. State in Rio de Janeiro was relocated back to Charlottesville 1. Similarly, the University of Michigan considered playing Western Michigan University in Frankfurt, Germany, but ultimately decided to keep the game in Ann Arbor 1.
