The 2020 American Athletic Conference Football Schedule has officially been announced. Conference play begins on Saturday, Sept. 19 with Houston at Memphis and Navy at Tulane.

The 2020 American Athletic Conference Football Championship Game is set for Saturday, Dec. 5 at the home stadium of the team with the best conference record. The game will be televised by either ABC or ESPN.
Kickoff times and television designations for the first three weeks of the season will be announced in June. The remaining kickoff times and TV will be announced six to 12 days prior to the date of the game.

Saturday, Dec. 12
Army vs. Navy (in Philadelphia, Pa.)
Only a couple of homes games versus 5 Major conferences (TCU @ SMU), (Rutgers @ Temple) and (North Carolina @ UCF). Seems like usually there are more.
I’m a North Carolina fan and I like the fact that they rescheduled the canceled UCF game from two years ago. I could care less about everything else.
