Utah State has signed football agreements to face Wyoming in a four-game series starting in 2011, as well as a game at Southern California in 2013.

USU will play at USC on Sept. 21, 2013, at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. It will be the teams' first meeting since 1989. The Aggies are 0-4 all-time against the Trojans, facing them in 1928, 1930, 1984 and 1989.

The Aggies will also play a basketball home-and-home series with the Trojans.

The first football game between Wyoming and Utah State is scheduled Oct. 8, 2011 in Logan. The four-game series will span six years. The Aggies will play at Wyoming on Sept. 13, 2014, before the Cowboys return to USU on Sept. 19, 2015, with Utah State playing the final game of the series at War Memorial Stadium in Laramie on Sept. 10, 2016.

"Adding Wyoming to our home schedule early in 2011 gives us a nice regional rivalry and will fill the vacancy created by Boise State," Barnes said. "It will also allow us to continue our master plan for a balanced schedule and give us six home games, which is great for our fans."

USU and USC will play a home-and-home men's basketball series starting in the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum in 2012-13.

"We have struggled to get games against BCS conference schools so this is an exciting series for the future," said USU head men's basketball coach Stew Morrill. "Scott Barnes negotiated a combo deal that made this happen and we appreciate his efforts in bringing a Pac-10 team to Logan."
