No. 2 Allegiant Stadium – Arizona (Las Vegas Raiders)

History: 3 Points

Prestige: 3 Points

Rivalry/BYU History: 2.5 Points

Summary: This one is a bit weird. The history in Allegiant Stadium is obviously nearly nonexistent as the stadium was just built last year. However, history will be made when BYU plays here because not only will it be the first college game ever played there, but it will be the first game in front of fans, including the Raiders.

Anytime a team plays in an NFL stadium, it is going to receive at least two points, but throw in the fact it is the newest stadium and it maxes it out to three points. While there isn’t any rivalry or BYU Football history in Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas has been BYU’s home away from home. When you consider their opponent, Arizona, there is also some history and rivalry there including Kalani Sitake’s first win, one of two losses in 2006, and an overall 11-12-1 record.

Total Points: 8.5
