The American Athletic Conference is adding Army as a football-only member starting in 2024. Army will replace SMU to keep the American a 14-team football league when SMU moves to the Atlantic Coast Conference. The move puts Army and Navy football in the same conference. But their traditional, end-of-the-season, standalone matchup will remain a nonconference game so it can be played after conference championships.
