Rankings from STATS Poll

The 2020 William & Mary Tribe football team represented the College of William & Mary as a member of the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) in the 2020–21 NCAA Division I FCS football season. The Tribe, led by second-year head coach Mike London, play their home games at Zable Stadium.

On July 17, 2020, the CAA announced that it would not play fall sports due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The conference allowed the option for teams to play as independents for the 2020 season if they still wished to play in the fall.[1]

Schedule[edit]

William & Mary had games scheduled against Stanford (September 5), Colgate (September 12), and Lafayette (September 19), which were all later canceled before the start of the 2020 season.[2][3] The CAA released its spring conference schedule on October 27, 2020.[4]
