BYU is hoping for a bounce-back season after a rough first year in the Big 12.
The Cougars are coming off a 5-7 campaign in which they only managed to win two games against conference opponents. They will be looking to start the 2024 season on a strong note with a win against an FCS team in Southern Illinois, but they know that taking down the Salukis could be a difficult task.
Southern Illinois has managed to stun an FBS foe in back-to-back seasons, most recently defeating Northern Illinois on the road last year. However, it's also worth noting that BYU is 18-0 against current FCS squads.
