BYU gets (north) Bama!
North Alabama recently released its media guide for the upcoming season, and has BYU as a future opponent in the 2020 season. The Lions begin their first year as an FCS opponent during the 2018 season.
With the news, BYU looks to have all 12 games scheduled for the 2020 season. Considering the quality of opponents on the schedule, the North Alabama game is probably a wise move.
BYU will play 6 power five teams in 2020 and some of the top group of five teams as well.
Here is how the schedule currently sits:
Home:
- Michigan State
- Missouri
- Utah State
- Houston
- San Diego State
- North Alabama
Away:
- Utah
- Arizona State
- Minnesota
- Stanford
- Northern Illinois
- Boise State

On one hand, this schedule is fun and what independence is all about.
