The 2020 U Sports football season was scheduled to feature the Canadian football competition under the auspices of U Sports as the highest level of competition for amateur football in Canada in 2020. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, U Sports cancelled the national championships, and the Atlantic University Sport, Canada West, and Ontario University Athletics conferences announced the complete cancellation of their schedules on June 8.[1][2][3][4] The Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec conference waited to make a decision until September 14, when they also announced that all university sports were cancelled for the remainder of 2020.[5][6]

## Planned scheduled seasons

[edit]

The season was scheduled to begin with the Montreal Carabins hosting the Sherbrooke Vert et Or on August 28 in Montreal, Quebec.[7] Four Atlantic University Sport teams were scheduled to begin play on August 29.[8] Ten Ontario University Athletics teams were scheduled to open their seasons on August 30.[9] The Canada West conference did not release a schedule, likely due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 impact.

The conference championships were scheduled to be played on November 14, and the 56th Vanier Cup championship was scheduled for November 28.[10][11][12] 27 university teams in Canada were scheduled to play U Sports football in 2020.
