Schedule

Perspective

UCLA's 2020 regular season was announced on January 16.[6] The Bruins had games scheduled against New Mexico State, Hawaii, and San Diego State, but canceled these games on July 10 due to the Pac-12 Conference's decision to play a conference-only schedule due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7]

On November 13, UCLA's scheduled home game against Utah was canceled after a COVID-19 outbreak within the Utah program.[8] The same day, the Pac-12 announced UCLA would instead host California the morning of November 15;[9] the Golden Bears' scheduled game at Arizona State had also been canceled after Arizona State had a COVID-19 outbreak. UCLA's game at Oregon was moved by a day to Saturday, November 21, to accommodate the other changes.[10]
