The BYU Cougars have announced the addition of four future home-and-home football series, rescheduled several future games, and have also revealed the cancellation of two future series.
The additions and changes come just over one season after BYU left behind its Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) status and joined the Big 12 Conference. That move, along with other realignment around college football, likely led to the additions and changes announced on Wednesday.
Below are details on each of the series added, games rescheduled, and series canceled:
HOME-AND-HOME SERIES ADDED
BYU will host Cal at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo, Utah, on Sept. 12, 2026. The Cougars will make the return trip to California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, Calif., on Sept. 11, 2027.
BYU will host Boston College in Provo during the 2028 season and will then travel to face the Eagles at Alumni Stadium in Chestnut Hill, Mass., in 2029.
The Beavers and Cougars will play their first matchup on Sept. 25, 2027 in Provo. BYU will then visit Reser Stadium in Corvallis, Ore., the following season on Sept. 9, 2028.
BYU will travel to face Colorado State at Canvas Stadium in Fort Collins, Colo., on Sept. 19, 2026. Three seasons later on Sept. 8, 2029, the Cougars will host the Rams at LaVell Edwards Stadium.

SERIES CANCELED
BYU announced that a previously scheduled home-and-home series with Army has been canceled. The series was supposed to begin in 2020 in West Point, N.Y., but the game was not played due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The second game was set for Provo in 2032.
A series with the Ole Miss Rebels has also been canceled. The two schools were slated to meet in Provo on Sept. 16, 2028 and in Oxford, Miss., on Sept. 8, 2029.
