The Arkansas State 2024 football schedule kicks off with a Week 1 clash against the Central Arkansas Bears. Surprisingly, the Red Wolves hold a losing record against their FCS foe but won the last two encounters convincingly.
That should comfortably be the easiest out-of-conference clash for the Red Wolves in 2024. They follow up by welcoming the Tulsa Golden Hurricane to Jonesboro before trips to Ann Arbor and Ames ratchet up the strength of schedule. Those games ensure Arkansas State has two Power Five programs on its schedule for the first time since 2015.
Moving into Sun Belt play, there is some positive news from the Arkansas State 2024 football schedule. They avoid the James Madison Dukes, Appalachian State Mountaineers, and Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, while games against the Troy Trojans and South Alabama Jaguars take place at ASU Stadium.

The Red Wolves also have two home games to end the season, which could give them a runway to another six-win season. However, they must negotiate tricky trips to the Texas State Bobcats and Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns to realize their postseason potential.
