In 2013, BYU has a nice schedule, especially at home for a change. The fact remains that there are still going to be some real patsies on the list for 2013. USU and Hawaii are already scheduled and there are 4 more spots that remain to be schedule.
I will give you a guess at who those will be. Think WAC lite, yet again.
BYU will have 6-7 lesser opponents (depends on what happens to Houston with new coaching etc) - unless Holmoe pulls a magic trick (I like him so I hope he does) BYU will play 5 teams that are worse than any team Utah plays in 2013.
The Wisconsin scheduling is two fold. 1) A great team for exposure and 2) An SOS booster.
These are the kind of games BYU needs more of. I am glad they got it scheduled but 6 good teams and 6 not so good teams does not make a great SOS. Better, but still not great. Sconsin helps.
So, I did think it through. Let's see who they get for the 4 remaining slots. I will be happy to stand corrected if they are not patsies or as Holmoe calls them "balance games". My guess is that they will be WAC oppoents again.
I looked at FSB schedules for BYU 2013. If there is a more recent schedule, I missed it.
