WARRENSBURG, Mo. (June 16, 2020) - Following yesterday's release of MIAA schedule modifications, the MIAA released today the full 2020 football schedule. As already noted, it will be a 10 game schedule with all 10 games being played on Saturdays. 

Each team will open the season Saturday, Sept. 12. This season, every team in the league will play five home and five road games. With 12 teams in the league, each team will have one unscheduled opponent.

To kick things off, the defending MIAA Champion Mules will be on the road Sept. 12 in Edmond, Okla. to take on Central Oklahoma.
