The BYU Cougars are set to take on the Wyoming Cowboys on September 14, 2024. DraftKings Sportsbook has the Cougars as 11.5 point favorites. So far, 96% of spread bets are on BYU, with Wyoming receiving only 4% of the bets. The total is set at 40, with 99% of bets on the over and just 1% on the under. It looks like the majority of bettors are favoring BYU in this matchup and we will let you know if we agree with that sentiment here in our BYU vs Wyoming preview.
Can BYU Stay Perfect With Win In Wyoming?
The BYU Cougars have won each of their first two games of the 2024 college football season. They defeated the Southern Illinois Salukis out of the FCS to start their season before getting a gritty 18-15 road win over the SMU Mustangs last time out. So far this season, the BYU defense has been stellar and they will look to keep it that way in this BYU vs Wyoming matchup from Laramie.
Through two games, BYU has allowed an average of 14.0 points per game to their opponents. And that number isn't skewed heavily by one result or the other, as they gave up 13 points in their opener and 15 points the week after that. Here, the Cougars will look to hold a third straight team below 20 points, which could give them a major advantage in their search for a third straight victory.
Wyoming Hopes to End Early Losing Streak
While things have been going very well for BYU, they have been going very poorly for the Wyoming Cowboys. Wyoming has dropped each of its first two games of the season, first against unbeaten Arizona State, then against FCS Idaho at home. That home loss to an FCS opponent is a terrible outcome for the Cowboys, who will need to find a way to respond after suffering that indignity.
Wyoming's offense is going to need to perform at a much higher level if the Cowboys are going to win Saturday's BYU vs Wyoming contest. The Cowboys have scored 10 points per game through their first two games of the season. And while being held to seven points against Arizona State isn't necessarily shameful, being held to 13 points by Idaho the week after has to serve as a wake-up call for this Wyoming team.
BYU vs Wyoming Best Bet
Based on the way BYU is playing defensively and Wyoming is playing offensively, there is not much reason to believe the Cowboys will fare well in this BYU vs Wyoming contest. We will lay the points with the BYU Cougars, who should be able to shut down Wyoming on the road to improve to 3-0 before their Big 12 season kicks into gear.
