The game marks K-State's first game to kick off after 9 p.m. CT since a non-conference game against UCLA in 2009. That game kicked off closer to 10:30 p.m., with the Bruins defeating the Wildcats, 23-9.

K-State and BYU have met nine times in the past, but this is the first time they've met since the 1997 Cotton Bowl. It's also the first matchup in Provo since 1977.

BYU has won their first two games of the season, beating Southern Illinois and SMU. They'll play Wyoming this weekend to set up their conference opener.
