How to watch and listen to Colorado vs BYU 2024 Alamo Bowl game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

Coach Prime's Colorado Buffaloes head into the Alamo Bowl with a solid 9-3 record, brimming with optimism yet mindful of the weight of history.

The Buffs have struggled in this bowl in years past, suffering heavy defeats in their last two appearances—a 38-8 loss to Oklahoma State in 2016 and a 55-23 setback against Texas in 2020. Despite a resurgence under Deion Sanders, Colorado hasn’t celebrated a bowl victory since the 2004 Houston Bowl, when they defeated UTEP. Breaking that nearly two-decade drought adds extra significance to their upcoming matchup with a formidable BYU squad, which wrapped up its season at 10-2.

Colorado vs BYU team news & key players

Colorado Buffaloes team news

On the other side, Colorado enters the bowl game with six players opting out, though none play pivotal roles. Shedeur Sanders ended the regular season as one of the nation's top quarterbacks, ranking third in passing yards with 3,926 and posting an impressive 35-8 touchdown-to-interception ratio.

While Sanders is an athletic quarterback, he rarely scrambles and finished the year with negative rushing yardage. Colorado’s offense leans heavily on the passing game, but sophomore running back Isaiah Augustave leads their ground efforts with 373 yards and four touchdowns.

Travis Hunter remains the primary offensive weapon, racking up 1,152 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns. The 6ft 1in junior capped his regular season with a stellar performance against Oklahoma State, amassing 116 yards and three touchdowns.

BYU Cougars team news

In the Houston game, Jake Retzlaff contributed 167 passing yards and added another 57 on the ground. The Cougars have largely avoided significant losses to the transfer portal, with only three players opting out—none of whom were starters.

Retzlaff, a 6ft 1in junior, threw for 2,796 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions during the season. Known for his mobility, he ranked second on the team in rushing with 388 yards and six touchdowns.

Sophomore running back LJ Martin leads BYU’s ground attack with 630 yards and five touchdowns, including a standout 120-yard, two-touchdown performance against Oklahoma State. In the receiving corps, the Cougars boast two reliable targets: Chase Roberts, a 6ft 4in junior with 843 yards and four touchdowns, and Darius Lassiter, a 6ft 2in senior who added 679 yards and four scores.
