Miami Finalizes 2020 Nonconference Schedule

Jul 10, 2019

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami football program announced Wednesday that it has finalized its nonconference schedule for the 2020 season.

The Hurricanes will host three nonconference opponents at Hard Rock Stadium during the month of September, and travel to Michigan State on Sept. 26.

Miami will kick off the 2020 campaign by hosting Temple on Sept. 5. The former BIG EAST Conference rivals last met in 2005, a 34-3 Hurricanes win. UM leads the all-time series, 13-1.

Miami will then host Wagner on Sept. 12, the first meeting between the schools. On Sept. 19, the Hurricanes host UAB, also for the first time in school history.

The Hurricanes then head to East Lansing, Mich., for their first meeting with the Spartans since 1989. Miami leads the all-time series with MSU, 4-0. This will mark UM’s first regular season game against a Big Ten opponent since a 2015 win over Nebraska.

UAB and Temple are decent non P5 programs thrown in with having to go to Michigan State ..

As for Wagner I don't even know where they're located

Is it really that difficult to get 2 P5 OOC opponents on the schedule every year.

Yes. Almost no one does this consistently.

That schedule is fine outside of wagner. Uab was 11-3 last year and temple was 8-5. They are solid non power 5 oppnents. Nobody is loading up big non conference opponents. The best you will get is 1 game at most.

This is pitiful. If we are going to schedule low we should just schedule FAMU or BCC.

Wagner is UCONN’s warm up game this season

The schedule would be fine if Wagner wasn’t on it. Temple and Michigan State is a tremendous non conference slate. Wagner is so embarrassing. Should never happen.

What's the difference between Wagner and any other cupcake from a lower division? Are they really that much worse than a Savannah State, Florida A&M, Bethune Cookman?

Wagner, UAB, and Temple. You could create an all-star team from those three schools and we would still win by 5 touchdowns.

Blake needs to go. He came up through the ranks from the ticket office side, and he couldn't even run a decent 3-day UM-UF ticket sale process. He is even worse on the OOC scheduling side.

We have one of the worst ADs in Power 5.

Like I say to my family, he has a degree from Mankato State here in MN. Good party school but not exactly know for its education. It was so random to see a MSU alum when I first saw that

I'm excited about Temple. I hear they have an exciting young coach, forgot his name this instant, but his DC goes by the name of Dorito. Ah, nostalgia!
