The 2020 SMU Mustangs football team represented Southern Methodist University during the 2020 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Mustangs were led by third-year coach Sonny Dykes and played their home games at Gerald J. Ford Stadium in University Park, Texas, a separate city within the city limits of Dallas, competed as members of the American Athletic Conference. ^[1]

After finishing their regular season with a record of 7–3 (4–3 in conference play), the Mustangs accepted an invitation to the Frisco Bowl, ^[2] where they were slated to play the UTSA Roadrunners. ^[3] However, the bowl was subsequently canceled, due to COVID-19 concerns within the SMU football program. ^[4]
