College Gridirons-LaVell Edwards Stadium-Brigham Young Cougars

LaVell Edwards Stadium
Provo, UT

Located in Provo, UT, LaVell Edwards Stadium is home of the Brigham Young Cougars. Construction of the stadium began in October 1963 and was completed the following fall. It was originally known as Cougar Stadium and had a seating capacity of 28,000 in 1964. Nearly two decades passed before fans saw any changes at the stadium.

In 1982, the stadium was expanded enormously to being able to seat 65,000 fans. Stands were constructed on the north and south sides of the stadium, the track was removed, and the field was lowered; allowing for additional seating to be built. Before the 1996 season, a new video/scoreboard was installed on the south side of the stadium. The stadium was renamed after former Cougars Coach LaVell Edwards after the 200 season. Today the stadium consist of a single tier box bowl with a four level press box on the west side containing 42 luxury suites.
