PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Commissioner Mike Aresco has announced the American Athletic Conference’s 2018 97-game football schedule, including the 48-game conference schedule.
The 2018 season marks the fourth year of the conference’s four-year scheduling cycle in which each of the 12 teams in The American plays eight conference games - five against the other teams in its division and three against teams from the other division. The two division winners will meet Dec. 1 in the fourth American Athletic Conference Football Championship.
“I am especially pleased to announce the 2018 football schedule in the wake of the overwhelming success that our schools enjoyed last season,” said Aresco.
