Rankings from STATS Poll

The 2020 Richmond Spiders football team represented the University of Richmond in the 2020–21 NCAA Division I FCS football season. They were led by fourth-year head coach Russ Huesman and played their home games at E. Claiborne Robins Stadium. The Spiders competed as a member of the Colonial Athletic Association.

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

Schedule

Richmond had a game scheduled against Yale on October 17, which was later canceled before the start of the 2020 season.[2] The CAA released its spring conference schedule on October 27, 2020.[3]
