are what they are.
BYU's landscape is completely different. Were Utah to have been cast in this role as an independent, I think they would not have fared as well as TH has done for the Cougars (I frankly think that they would struggle schedule wise by comparison.... even with the ND issue, etc). I am quite accepting of what we are doing for the time being. BYU fans need to be at the less desirable games in Nov. and infuse enthusiasm into the program; itis one of the means of bringing BYU into a Big12 in the future.
What I find to be lame is the criticism of BYU's schedule from a perspective that seems to assume that BYU wouldn't schedule more P5's. Like we wouldn't tackle a PAC12 or Big12 schedule if we were given the opportunity to.
