Along with the “Ghost White” uniforms, BYU will also sport pink accessories to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month. BYU started wearing pink accessories for one game in October dating back to 2010 in an upset victory over San Diego State.
BYU has worn the all-white with navy blue numbers and stripes at home on five different occasions. The last coming against Cal in 2018. BYU is 3-2 in games with the all-white uniforms at LaVell Edwards Stadium, highlighted by memorable wins over Boise State and Toledo in 2015 and 2016.
Saturday night will mark the first time since 1992 that BYU is playing on Halloween. That year, BYU pulled off an upset victory over the Penn State Nittany Lions. This week against Western Kentucky, BYU will be a heavy favorite going into the game.
After you’re done trick or treating on Saturday, BYU/WKU will kick off at 8:15 p.m. (MT). The game will be televised nationally on ESPN, and the radio broadcast can be heard on KSL NewsRadio (102.7 FM, 1160 AM).
