The Territorial Cup Series (also known as the Duel in the Desert Series) is the yearlong rivalry competition between the University of Arizona Wildcats (U of A) and the Arizona State University Sun Devils (ASU). The series began in 2009 with State Farm as the sponsor until 2012 (both universities are seeking new sponsorship). Although without an official sponsor, media outlets[1] and both universities[2][3] continue to track and promote the series records.
The name comes from the Territorial Cup, the trophy that is awarded to the winner of the annual football game between the two schools. The 2023–24 series will be the fifteenth and final year with both Universities as members of the Pac-12 Conference, as both will be moving to the Big 12 for the start of the 2024–25 academic year.[4]
