The inaugural game was held on December 5, 2015, at 12:00 pm ET.[1] The game will pit the champion of the Eastern Division (UCF, Cincinnati, Connecticut, East Carolina, South Florida, and Temple) against the champion of the Western Division (Houston, Memphis, Navy, SMU, Tulane, and Tulsa). The game will be played at the home stadium of the division winner with the better conference record.[2] Television broadcast rights to the game are owned by ESPN/ABC.[1] History{{Location map+ | USA | width=400 | caption= – East division– West division | relief=yes | places= {{Location map~ | USA | label=UCF | position=right | mark=Blue pog.svg | link=University of Central Florida | lat=28.6016 | long=-81.2005 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Cincinnati | position=left | mark=Blue pog.svg | link=University of Cincinnati | lat=39.132024 | long=-84.515548 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Connecticut | mark=Blue pog.svg | link=University of Connecticut | lat=41.807167 | long=-72.2525 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=East Carolina | position=right | mark=Blue pog.svg | link=East Carolina University | lat=35.602 | long=-77.368 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Houston | position=left | mark=Red pog.svg | link=University of Houston | lat=29.718922 | long=-95.339162 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Memphis | mark=Red pog.svg | link=University of Memphis | lat=35.119 | long=-89.937 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=South Florida | position=bottom | mark=Blue pog.svg | link=University of South Florida | lat=28.054561 | long=-82.413058 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=SMU | position=right | mark=Red pog.svg | link=Southern Methodist University | lat=32.841 | long=-96.784 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Tulane | position=right | mark=Red pog.svg | link=Tulane University | lat=29.935344 | long=-90.122687 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Tulsa | position=left | mark=Red pog.svg | link=University of Tulsa | lat=36.152222 | long=-95.946389 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Temple | position=right | mark=Blue pog.svg | link=Temple University | lat=39.859751 | long=-75.229089 }} {{Location map~ | USA | label=Navy | position=left | mark=Red pog.svg | link=United States Naval Academy | lat=38.88 | long=-76.29 }} }}{{Further|2010–2014 NCAA conference realignment|2010–13 Big East Conference realignment}} The American was reorganized following the tumultuous period of realignment that hobbled the Big East between 2010 and 2013. In all, 14 member schools announced their departure for other conferences, and 15 other schools announced plans to join the conference (eight as all-sports members, and four for football only). In December 2012, the Big East's seven remaining non-FBS schools, all Catholic institutions — DePaul, Georgetown, Marquette, Providence, St. John's, Seton Hall, and Villanova – announced that they voted unanimously to leave the conference. After a settlement in 2013 between the non-FBS schools and the FBS schools regarding the use of the conference name, the ten remaining football playing members renamed themselves the American Athletic Conference.[3] In 2014, Louisville and Rutgers departed the conference and joined the ACC and Big Ten, respectively. Their departure was succeeded on the same day by the entrance of East Carolina, Tulane, and Tulsa for all sports.[4] In 2015, the U.S. Naval Academy joined the conference for football, bringing the membership total in that sport to twelve teams. At the time, the conference split into two six-team divisions and created a conference championship game.[2] Pre-championship game era{{for|football conference champions of the Big East, the predecessor of The American|Big East Conference (1979–2013)#Football}}The 2013 and 2014 American Athletic Conference football champions were determined by the team(s) with the best conference record, and there was no championship game held. In years when two or more teams tied in conference record, co-champions were declared.
