WKU and the University of Tennessee Chattanooga have mutually decided to move their originally scheduled season opener on September 3 to a later date.
The new date for the showdown between the Hilltoppers and the Mocs is still to be determined as stated in a press release Tuesday by spokesman Bryan Fyalkowski.
“We have had continuing discussions with Chattanooga regarding the date of our 2020 football game,” WKU Athletic Director Todd Stewart said in the release. “Given the recent changes among many programs regarding their start date for the upcoming football season, WKU and Chattanooga have mutually agreed to not play during the opening week of the season and will move our game to a date later in the season.
