BYU Football will play two home games not on a Saturday.

On Tuesday morning, the BYU football program announced its 2022 schedule. Below is the Cougars’ official schedule for the upcoming season. While this was 100% expected to be the final schedule, nothing is ever official until things are finalized and sent out by the team.

2022 BYU Football Schedule

September 3rd – @ USF Bulls

September 10th – vs Baylor Bears

September 17th – @ Oregon Ducks

September 24th – vs Wyoming Cowboys

September 29th – vs Utah State Aggies

October 8th – vs Notre Dame Fighting Irish (neutral site in Las Vegas)

October 15th – vs Arkansas Razorbacks

October 22nd – @ Liberty Flames

October 28th – vs East Carolina Pirates

November 5th – @ Boise State Broncos

November 19th – vs Dixie State Trailblazers

November 26th – @ Stanford Cardinal

It is worth noting that there are a few games that will not take place on a Saturday. The first is that the Cougars will host Utah State on Thursday, September 29th. While the Battle for the Wagon Wheel almost always takes place on conference weekend, it is normally on a Friday, not Thursday.

The second game is at home against East Carolina. This game will be played on a Friday night and will almost certainly be the ESPN Friday night primetime game that the Cougars have come quite familiar with (along with Boise State) over the last decade.

While technically there could be some slight changes (see 2017 scheduling Portland State), it is about a 99% that this is here to stay. After all, businesses, flights, tv deals and a numerous other amount of business decisions are made around these dates staying where they are.
