The Valero Alamo Bowl becomes the Big 12 bowl in 2024 for two teams that could have been. The BYU Cougars will face the Colorado Buffaloes, and their Heisman Trophy-winner, at the Alamodome in San Antonio. The matchup is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. ET/4:30 p.m. PT on Dec. 28.

Both BYU and Colorado had significant wins, at 10-2 and 9-3 respectively. The Cougars and the Buffalos both spent time in the top 25 and in the College Football Playoff rankings. Both were situated in a four-way tie atop the Big 12, but were bested by Arizona State and Iowa State, who went on to face each other in the championship. Colorado has one more significant win though: the Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter. The odds are favoring Deion Sanders and his Buffaloes.
