Schedule

Air Force announced its 2020 football schedule on February 27, 2020.[9] The original 2020 schedule consisted of 6 home and 6 away games in the regular season. On August 10, 2020, the Mountain West Conference announced the suspension of the football season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[10][11] Due to the nature of their institutions and rivalries, Air Force kept scheduled games with Army and Navy in order to play for the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy in the fall.[12] Scheduled games against Duquesne and Purdue from the original schedule were canceled and Mountain West Conference play was suspended. On September 25, the Mountain West announced that their Board of Directors had met and approved plans to resume the football season.[13] The revised schedule was announced on October 1, with conference play beginning on October 24.[14] The Falcons had six conference games scheduled, two less than their MW counterparts to account for their service academy match-ups. The Army game, originally scheduled for November 7, was postponed indefinitely on November 5 with both schools saying they would reschedule the game if possible.[15][16] The Wyoming game, originally scheduled for November 14, was canceled on November 8.[17] The Colorado State game, originally scheduled for November 26, was canceled on November 25.[18] On that same day, the Air Force-Army game was rescheduled for December 19 at Michie Stadium.[19]
