Earlier on Tuesday, head coach Pat Narduzzi said that he felt his program was close to announcing an opponent for Pitt football's 2020 season opener, after Miami Ohio's season was cancelled earlier in August by the Mid-American Conference.
Not long after, Pitt football announced its opponent would be Austin Peay on September 12th at Heinz Field:
