The 9-3 Colorado Buffaloes meet the 10-2 BYU Cougars on Saturday in San Antonio's awe-inspiring Alamo Dome.

This is the 13th meeting between these two teams, and Colorado has enjoyed the upper hand with eight victories to BYU's three.

All eyes are on the Buffaloes for this game. NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders will coach his first bowl game with Colorado.

The Buffs will also have two-way sensation: Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter on the field and Sanders' son Shedeur as the starting quarterback.

Hunter and Sanders could be selected in the top ten in the 2025 NFL Draft. Colorado has enjoyed an excellent season and would love to cap it with a bowl win. Since becoming a college head coach, Coach Sanders is 0-2 in bowl games.

The Cougars have already been busy signing new players for next season in the transfer portal. But they have also lost players.

Crew Wakley has entered the portal, and his departure will promote Raider Damuni to the starting role.

BYU finished the regular season ahead of Colorado in the rankings. However, the oddsmakers view the Cougars as five-point underdogs.

Will Colorado's star power be too much for BYU? Or will the Cougars cause an upset?

Make sure you don't miss the BYU vs Colorado Alamo Bowl livestream or any of this season's college football with our 2024 college football livestreams guide.

We've tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out first to see if it's right for you. But you've got other VPN options too, so check out our full list of the best VPN services.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple, just follow these steps.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.K. and want to view your usual U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sling or a service listed below and watch the BYU vs Colorado Alamo Bowl livestream.
