Conference USA has released a revised football schedule for the 2026 season following the departure of Louisiana Tech to the Sun Belt Conference. The league previously announced its 2026 slate on March 12 and included Louisiana Tech.
With the departure of Louisiana Tech to the Sun Belt and UTEP to the Mountain West, Conference USA drops to 10 teams for the 2026 season.
Returning CUSA members include Delaware, FIU, Jacksonville State, Kennesaw State, Liberty, Middle Tennessee, Missouri State, New Mexico State, Sam Houston, and WKU.
Top non-conference games for each CUSA team in 2026 include Delaware at Vanderbilt, FIU at USF, Georgia Southern at Jacksonville State, Kennesaw State at Tennessee, Liberty at James Madison, Middle Tennessee at Kansas, Missouri State at Texas A&M, New Mexico State at Florida State, Sam Houston at Texas Tech, and WKU at Georgia.
The 2026 Conference USA Championship Game will be played on Friday, Dec. 4 and will be televised by CBS Sports Network (CBSSN).
All 2026 game dates are subject to change. The Conference USA TV schedule for the 2026 season will be announced later this spring.
