Wisconsin football is scheduling a future home-and-home series with California in 2029 and 2030, according to a release from the program.
The games are the first on Wisconsin’s schedules in those two years, along with whatever Big Ten Conference play looks like in six years. The games remain more than a half-decade away, and a lot with the sport is sure to change before those dates.

The two days, as reported, are September 1, 2029 in Berkeley, California and August 31, 2030 in Madison, Wisconsin.
California will be an ACC school in 2024 with the Pac-12 having disbanded. The Bears hold a 5-1 advantage over the Badgers in the all-time series, with Wisconsin’s only win coming in 1946. The two schools have not met since 1990.
Wisconsin and California schedule home-and-home football series in Berkeley, Calif., on Sept. 1, 2029 and in Madison, Wisc., on Aug. 31, 2030.

Looking ahead to the 2024 season, we’ve already ranked all 18 programs in the Big Ten, ranked the 18 starting quarterbacks, ranked all 18 head coaches, predicted each Big Ten team’s 2024 record, looked at the early College Football Playoff tiers, made bold predictions for the season and checked in on the Las Vegas win totals for each team in the conference.
It’s hard to know exactly what the sport’s landscape will look like when these games are scheduled to played.
