BYU football will now clash with the Utah State Aggies in early November in 2019, after USU made some tweaks to its schedule.

FBSschedules.com is reporting that BYU football’s 2019 game with the Utah State Aggies has been moved by USU.

The Cougars and Aggies were originally slated to meet on Oct. 4, 2019 (Friday). Now USU will play host to BYU football on Nov. 2, 2019 (Saturday).

The change comes after USU scheduled a road contest with LSU on Oct. 5. Obviously the Aggies can’t play two games the same week, so BYU was moved.

The Cougars lead the all-time series with USU 48-35-3.

BYU football’s 2019 schedule currently looks as follows. (Keep in mind that the dates are tentative.

Thursday, Aug. 26: vs Utah Utes

Saturday, Sep. 7: at Tennessee Volunteers

Saturday, Sep. 14: vs USC Trojans

Saturday, Sep. 21: vs Washington Huskies

Saturday, Sep. 28: at Toledo Rockets

Saturday, Oct. 12: at Washington State Cougars

Saturday, Oct. 19: vs Boise State Broncos

Saturday, Nov. 2: at Utah State Aggies

Saturday, Nov. 16: vs Idaho State Bengals

Saturday, Nov. 23: at UMass Minutemen

Saturday, Nov. 30: at San Diego State Aztecs

Barring a New Year’s Six invitation, BYU football will compete in against an American Athletic Conference opponent in the Hawaii Bowl in Honolulu.

Next: Breiden Fehoko following brother to Provo?

While the first few years as a FBS Independent had Cougar fans questioning the scheduling, Tom Holmoe has certainly turned things around. BYU will be hosting some of the premiere programs in college football, and with Kalani Sitake changing recruiting, it’s an exciting time to be a Cougar.

BYU football wraps up spring practices this week, with Alumni Day on Saturday.
