Syracuse football has a pre-season schedule that includes summer work-outs, walk-through practices and then fall camp.

Syracuse football remains hopeful that its 2020 campaign will take place amid the novel coronavirus pandemic, and the NCAA has approved a plan for the Orange and other teams in the sport to conduct their pre-season initiatives.

The ‘Cuse, as it turns out, is slated to open its 2020 term by traveling to Chestnut Hill, Mass.
