Who didn't expect this? Fellow Independent. One and done. FBS school, not FCS
... (we already have FCS Idaho State on schedule that year. http://www.fbschedules.com/ncaa-19/2019-byu-cougars-football-schedule.php )

Makes 6 home games and a "Neutral" (at Gillette vs UMass) in '19. Room to add another home/Neutral game. Or maybe an away game to get another H/H series started vs a stronger program.

I fully expect to see some Novermber series announced vs NMSU and Liberty (more vs UMass?). We're all Indy and so the scheduling options are limited for all of us.

One could argue that we should be hoping for Liberty's success in their move to FBS as an Indy. Not only would that make them a more relevant opponent, but BYU won't be the most overtly religious FBS school anymore (their athletics page http://www.liberty.edu/flamesclub/ touts that they are "Champions for Christ") Also, they could be an ally in defending the role/rights of religious schools in NCAA sports.
