The Auburn Tigers have added the UMass Minutemen to their 2020 football schedule, the two schools announced on Thursday.

Auburn will host UMass at Jordan-Hare Stadium on Nov. 14, 2020. The game will be the first-ever meeting between the two teams on the gridiron.

UMass will receive a $1.9 million guarantee for the game, according to the Daily Hampshire Gazette.

Auburn now has three of their four non-conference games scheduled for the 2020 season. The Tigers are also scheduled to host Southern Miss on Sept. 26 and Alabama A&M on Nov. 21.

In SEC play in 2020, Auburn is slated to host Arkansas, LSU, Texas A&M, and Kentucky and travel to Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi State, and Ole Miss.

UMass, an FBS Independent, now has seven games tentatively set for their schedule in 2020. The Minutemen are scheduled to host Troy (Sept. 19) and Army (Nov. 21).

The remaining five games on the docket for the Minutemen are all on the road: UConn (Sept. 3), Appalachian State (Sept. 26), Mississippi State (Oct. 17), Auburn (Nov. 14), and Liberty (Nov. 28).
