PULLMAN, Wash. — The Washington State University Football team has unveiled its new 10-game all PAC-12 schedule for the 2020 season.

Washington State was originally scheduled to open the season on the road against the Utah State Aggies on Sept. 3. The Cougs now will open their season at home against the Utah Utes on Sept. 26.

Here’s the Cougars’ full schedule:

“The health, safety and well-being of our student-athletes, coaches, staff and fans continues to be our guiding principle as we navigate a path to our fall seasons,” said WSU Director of Athletics Pat Chun. “We are appreciative of Commissioner Scott, the Pac-12 staff and everyone involved across our 12 institutions for working collaboratively to create these schedules. We are optimistic these schedules put us in the best possible position to have our fall seasons.”

Officials said details on kickoff times and TV networks are set to be announced at a later date, along with much more specific information about the coming season.

Just like their cross-state rival Washington Huskies, the Cougars will also be led by a first-year head coach this season. Nick Rolovich, who previously coached at Hawaii, is taking over for Mike Leach, who left for Mississippi State.
