BYU football: Five future games to get excited about

No. 4: LSU vs BYU (in Houston), 2017

BYU football starts spring practice on Monday. That means the 2017 football season is starting… so this LSU game is right around the corner.

The Tigers and Cougars will clash in NRG Stadium in Houston (the home of Super Bowl 51) on Saturday, Sept. 2. LSU will be without Leonard Fournette, but the Tigers will still have a ton of weapons. BYU might not escape Houston with a victory, but playing on national television against a SEC team in an NFL stadium is something to get excited about.

BYU and LSU have never met on the gridiron.
