LOL.. an independents championship game wouldn't do them much good.

They'd basically be playing BYU every year and if we are our usual 8-4 selves, that won't get them anywhere.

Really? You think playing an unranked BYU team would do a lick of good?

Ask Baylor and TCU what not playing on the last week did for them last season.

What in the world? So, say BYU is 5-7. Are you saying it is better for ND

When was he last time either BYU or ND was 5-7?

Oh don't get me wrong, as a BYU fan, I LOVE the idea. I just don't see any reason for ND to think it's a great idea.
