For the first time since pre-COVID, the American Athletic Conference will be returning to its normal 18-game schedule for the 2021-2022 season.
The AAC announced the conference pairings for next season on Thursday. Each team was assigned eight home-and-home series, plus one home-only and one road-only opponent.
Last season, the AAC opted for a 20-game conference slate but the Shockers only played 13 of those games due to postponements. According to the new schedule, the Shockers will not visit South Florida in 2021-22 and do not have a home game against Temple.
WSU’s full conference schedule will be released in early September.
