The University of South Florida's football game scheduled for Saturday against Navy has been postponed due to impacts of COVID-19, the school said Wednesday.

"We are disappointed that we will be unable to play Navy this week," Vice President of Athletics Michael Kelly said. "Our student-athletes are continuing to work hard with energy and enthusiasm, and look forward to the opportunity to compete and get better each week. However, all our decisions start with the health and safety of our student-athletes as our first priority and we reached a point this week where the decision was clear that it was in their best interest to postpone this week's game."

USF will work with the conference and Navy on a potential date to reschedule the contest.

The only other remaining game on USF's schedule is against UCF on the day after Thanksgiving.
