Army set to replace SMU in the American Athletic Conference next year. I like this addition.

Smart move.

This will complicate the traditional scheduling for this game since it has happened in mid December but with conference implications will have to happen before the championship game.

Another huge loss of tradition. They've always had that spotlight entirely to themselves. I guess Air Force will be happy.

No mention of divisional play but it appears they will play the traditional Army/Navy game after the AAC Championship game? Interesting and credit to Aresco for making this happen

The subject through me a curve ball. Army is joining the AAC not the ACC.

I could not see why the ACC would want Army as a member.

My bad and mistake. I corrected it.

Great move for AAC. Army v Navy will be played as a "non-conference" game thereby not affecting the CCG. The AAC could try to snag AFA and CSU out of MWC in next realignment.

Good move, and better than anyone they added in the last round.

I am kind of bummed this didn't happen earlier. I grew up near West Point and would have loved to see them play the Mustangs.
