DALLAS (Nov. 5, 2020) – The Conference USA Board of Directors approved an updated format for its men's and women's basketball scheduling that will move conference competition to Friday and Saturday, the league announced Thursday.
As previously released, C-USA will transition to an 18-game regular season conference schedule for the 2020-21 season that keeps student-athlete health and safety at the forefront. Schools will play two games per visit at four select C-USA campuses, and will host four teams for a two-game series. Teams will also have a home-and-home opportunity with a designated rival opponent.
The new model announced Thursday will have teams play back-to-back games on Friday and Saturday, instead of Thursday and Saturday as originally decided.
