PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh will host Austin Peay in the 2020 season opener at Heinz Field on Sept. 12.

The Panthers announced the game on Tuesday. Austin Peay replaces Miami (Ohio) on Pitt’s schedule after the Mid-American Conference announced earlier this month it would postpone fall athletics.

The game will be the first-ever between the Governors — a member of the Football Championship Subdivision — and the Panthers. Austin Peay reached the FCS quarterfinals last fall.
