On Saturday night, BYU travels to Laramie to take on the Wyoming Cowboys. It will be the first time BYU has played in Laramie since 2009. After wearing navy against SMU, BYU will go back to royal uniforms against the Cowboys.

BYU will wear the royal helmets with all white uniforms. The last time BYU wore this combination was against Oklahoma State in 2023. The Cougars also wore this combination in a road loss at Oregon in 2022.
