For starters, Cougar fans planning on travelling to away games, make sure to pack your favorite royal blue merch. Whether you’re all the way in Florida or a short drive up north at Rice-Eccles Stadium, BYU wants to see speckles of blue in all of its road game stadiums.
It’s almost the same story for home games but with one exception. In the season opener against Southern Illinois, plan on wearing blue.
In the first conference game against Kansas State, BYU asks fans to wear white.
After the one-off white-out, the rest of conference play will be all royal blue for the Cougs. Against Arizona, Oklahoma State, Kansas, and Houston, BYU is keeping it simple with fans wearing the school’s main, most iconic color.
One week till we kick off the 𝟭𝟬𝟬𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 of BYU Football.

BYU Football Announces Captains For 2024 Season
The four BYU Football players who received the captain designation this year include:
- Tyler Batty, DE
- Jakob Robinson, CB
- Chase Roberts, WR
- Connor Pay, IOL
“We have a close-knit group of players on the team with a lot of good leaders, and I’m confident in the leadership these 15 players will provide for our team,” said BYU football head coach Kalani Sitake. “The Leadership Council will meet regularly to plan and provide the leadership responsibilities each has with his teammates and for the program, on and off the field. On game days, three of our four captains will be joined each game by one of the co-captains to represent the team at the coin toss, while the other captain will coordinate with the rest of the leadership in the locker room to lead our team as we come out to take the field.”
BYU cut the number of captains in half from last year. In 2023, BYU had eight captains.
Along with captains, BYU announced Co-Captains who will be part of the Leadership Council.
