PROVIDENCE, R.I. – American Athletic Conference commissioner Mike Aresco announced the two-year football scheduling model for conference games that will be in place for the 2020 and 2021 football seasons.
The scheduling model was approved by The American's athletic directors last week at the conference's fall meeting in Philadelphia.
The 2020 season will be the first for The American with 11 football-playing institutions. The 2020 and 2021 schedules will include eight conference games –four home games and four road contests – for each team in each season. Each team will face the other 10 teams at least once in the two-year cycle.
