Doing a Game by Game Preview Of BYU Football Opponents. Week One — Arizona Wildcats

College football is here.

More importantly, BYU football is here. With just three days to go, I wanted to start taking a look at the teams BYU will face in the 2021 season. Starting of the season, BYU will be facing the University of Arizona at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Arizona is not a team that BYU is unfamiliar with. The two teams have played each other 24 total times, dating back to 1936. Arizona leads the series 12-11-1. The one tie came in 1947, where the game ended 14-14.

More recently, BYU and Arizona have played two times in the last five years, with Saturday’s game being the third, and final of a three game agreement.
