ESPN, the TV rights holder for BYU football games, will be televising the first three matchups on the Cougars 2021 schedule.

In week two, BYU hosts rival Utah for the first meeting between the two schools since 2019. Last year’s contest was canceled due to the Pac-12 going to a conference-only schedule. The in-state battle will kickoff in Provo at 8:15 p.m. and air on ESPN.
