BYU Football has known for a few years that their opening game in 2019 will be against Utah.
But it wasn’t until Tuesday that fans found out that the Holy War will take place on opening day, not just opening week.
On Tuesday the PAC-12 released their schools’ 2019 football schedules, and it held one key tidbit for the Cougars. They’ll be playing the Utes on Thursday, August 29th rather than Saturday the 31st.
That Thursday is considered my most to be the opening night of college football.
Sure, a few teams will play the Saturday before if they receive scheduling exemptions, but the first time fans get to see some big matchups will come on the 29th.
