This is the 96th meeting between these storied programs, a series that dates back to 1896 or 1922, depending on your allegiance. The Cougars trail 32-59-4 in the all-time series but come into this game as the Big 12 leader with hopes of crashing the College Football Playoff. BYU won the last meeting, seizing a 26-17 win in 2021 at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
