Weber State Football Hosts Blackout For Home Opener Against South Dakota

OGDEN, Utah-Saturday, Weber State football hosts South Dakota for their home opener at Stewart Stadium.

The Wildcats, for the 6:00 p.m. kickoff, encourage fans to wear black, as the #11 team in the FCS STATS poll, is having a blackout against the Coyotes.

The first 3,000 fans in attendance will receive a free blackout T-shirt. There will also be a groundbreaking for the new building at the north end of Stewart Stadium at 5:00 p.m.

This is only the third match-up in history between these two schools as the teams tied in 1970 in the first all-time meeting at Ogden.

The Coyotes bested the Wildcats 52-49 in double overtime in 2016 at Vermillion, S.D.
