FRISCO, Texas — Kalani Sitake’s 10th season as BYU’s football coach officially begins on Aug. 30 when the Cougars host Portland State at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo.

The other schools sharing the stage with BYU on Tuesday are Arizona State, Baylor, UCF, Cincinnati, Iowa State, Kansas State and Texas Tech.
Receiver Chase Roberts, running back LJ Martin, linebackers Jack Kelly and Isaiah Glasker and defensive lineman Keanu Tanuvasa will represent BYU in the Lone Star State.
