BYU football announced today that a game has been scheduled with Portland State in 2017.
The game will be on Saturday, Aug. 26 at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo. One week later, the Cougars will meet the LSU Tigers at NRG Stadium in Houston.
Adding the Vikings gives BYU football 13 games in its 2017 schedule, which typically isn’t allowed by the NCAA. However, there is a rule in place that allows FBS teams that play in Hawaii to schedule a 13th game. BYU football travels to Hawaii to on Nov. 25.
Portland State was just 3-8 this season, but last season the Vikings were very good.
