On By Littum

PROVO, Utah – The final regular season game of the 2024 BYU football season will be a cold one.

No. 19 BYU hosts the Houston Cougars tonight at LaVell Edwards Stadium. Kickoff is at 20.15 (MST).



KSL Meteorologist Matt Johnson provided an updated forecast for tonight’s game during “KSL Today” on Friday morning.

“It’s going to be cold. Layer up, folks. 36 to 33 will be the temperature range. And yes, it’s the last game of the (regular) season for the Cougars. Kind of a must-win situation for BYU,” Johnson said.

Tonight’s Houston game will be the second straight BYU home game with temperatures around freezing. On November 9, BYU faced Kansas and lost in a game where the kickoff temperature was 33 degrees.

Last week at Arizona State, BYU played in 78-degree temps in Tempe.

The “must-win” dynamic Matt Johnson referenced BYU, which still has a path to a spot in the Big 12 Championship Game next week in Arlington.

BYU needs to beat Houston, but will also need Arizona State or Iowa State to lose one of their games. If either outcome occurs, BYU will play in next week’s Big 12 Championship Game in Texas.
