Tech adds Southern Miss to 2020 football slate

HATTIESBURG, Miss. – After seeing its Big Ten matchup against Minnesota canceled after the conference went to a league-only slate for the 2020 season, the Tennessee Tech football team picked up another opponent for the approaching campaign on Thursday as Southern Miss announced it was adding Tech for the September 19, 2020, slot.

That weekend was originally announced as Tech’s home opener against North Carolina Central, but that game was also canceled after the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference suspended all fall sports in mid-July over COVID-19 concerns.

As the situation is still in flux, the 2020 football slate continues to be subject to change.
