Schedule
BYU‘s games against Michigan State , Minnesota , Utah , Arizona State , Stanford and Missouri were all canceled before the season started. These were moves by the Pac-12, Big Ten and SEC related to COVID-19 in order to reduce the spread of the virus through travel restrictions. Any other changes to the schedule will be made in accordance with these restrictions. On August 8, 2020, the Mid-American Conference suspended their season taking Northern Illinois off of BYU's schedule. On August 10, 2020, Mountain West Conference suspended their 2020 season removing Utah State , Boise State and San Diego State from the Cougars’ 2020 schedule. The game at Army , scheduled for September 19 as part of the replacement slate of games, was postponed indefinitely on September 12 with both the academy and BYU pledging to attempt to reschedule the game for a later date. Subsequently, the Mountain West Conference announced that both Boise State and San Diego State would be permitted to play BYU late in the season.
