AAC announces scheduling plan for 2020-21 men’s, women’s basketball seasons

The American Athletic Conference has unveiled its scheduling plan for the 2020-21 men's and women's basketball seasons.

AAC Commissioner Mike Aresco announced Wednesday 20-game, double round-robin conference schedules in both men’s and women’s basketball for each of the American’s 11 member institutions, including the University of Cincinnati.

“This format provides a sensible and fair path for all of our men’s and women’s basketball teams in what will be a challenging upcoming season,” Aresco said. “It allows each of our teams to play a consistent number of conference games and will ensure that they are competing against teams that are utilizing our strong health and safety protocols.
