The American Athletic Conference has announced the 2017-18 men's basketball conference pairings.
With the addition of Wichita State in 2017-18, each team in The American will play seven of its 11 opponents twice, and the other four opponents once each – two at home and two away.
UConn will face UCF, Cincinnati, East Carolina, Memphis, Temple, Tulsa and Wichita State both home and away next season. The Huskies will face USF and SMU at home only, and face Houston and Tulane solely on the road.
Playing only one game against SMU could hurt the Huskies' RPI.
