The Western Kentucky men's basketball team's full 2021-22 Conference USA slate of 18 games, complete with a format change to divisional play, was released this week by the league.
The reigning East Division champion Hilltoppers will play every team from the East (Florida Atlantic, FIU, Old Dominion, Charlotte, Middle Tennessee and Marshall) twice in home-and-home matchups, while facing every team from the West Division except UTEP once for a total of nine home games and nine away games.
WKU will open its conference slate on the road for the third time in four seasons, starting at Southern Miss on Dec.
