SALT LAKE CITY — BYU-Boise State is back on, giving the Cougars their highest profile Group of Five opponent for the novel coronavirus impacted 2020 season.
The Cougars and Broncos will face each other Nov. 7 at Albertsons Stadium in Boise.
That’s the same date the two programs were set to face each other, prior to the Mountain West Conference’s decision on Aug. 10 to postpone the 2020 season due to COVID-19 health concerns. The MWC announced last week it will play an abbreviated schedule beginning Oct. 24, however, and released its revised schedule Thursday.
“The annual game between BYU and Boise State has become a much-anticipated regional rivalry between two universities with great football traditions,” BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe said in a statement.
