Despite the delay, Kentucky, South Carolina, and UAB will be playing competitive fixtures during the fall season.
Due to the pandemic, the regular season champion earned the league's automatic bid.
Marshall, who won the conference, won the national title game 1–0 in overtime over Indiana. This was not only Marshall's first men's soccer title, but was also the first national title in a team sport won by a Conference USA member while affiliated with the league.[1]
