The American Athletic Conference has announced that USAA, one of the leading providers of insurance, banking and retirement solutions for members of the military, veterans and their families, has been named as the presenting partner of the conference’s football championship game.
The 2024 American Athletic Conference Football Championship Game presented by USAA will take place Friday, Dec. 6, at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT as the Tulane Green Wave faces the Army Black Knights at Michie Stadium in West Point, New York. The game will be televised live on ABC with a national radio broadcast on ESPN Radio.
“We are very proud to partner with USAA as presenting sponsor of the American Football Championship,” said American Athletic Conference Commissioner Tim Pernetti. “USAA’s mission, people and standing as a national leader are consistent with our DNA as a conference.
