in scheduling out of conference. The bigger deal to them is maximizing home games so they can earn money to pay Rose's salary and to keep the program out of the black.

BYU announces non-conference schedule

TCuz

The saddest part is I think they start 0.533 winning %

Illinois St will be a very tough game.

lbmango

Horrible- there seems to be no reason to play in Provo

SouthernBlueBlood

Maybe the scheduler hates scheduling like Bronco/recruiting?

Y4LYFE

7/11/17 4:48pm

Why are we agreeing to play at UVU?

Dangerous

7/11/17 4:48pm

Right, like they are going to turn us down without it.

Byu AD lost a bet

we signed a 3 for 1 a few years ago. so 2 at the MC, then 1 at the UCCU Center,

We can justify some of this...

TCuz

Atrocious? Sounds about right coming from you. It is solid, not spectacular.

Turnpike Lane

I'm a pretty positive person in regards to BYU basketball.

TCuz

7/11/17 4:52pm

The issue is BYU rarely gets great non conference slate. In comparison, this one is solid.

Turnpike Lane

7/11/17 4:55pm

Kind of a cherry-picked year. Here's the data from 2010-17.

TCuz

7/11/17 5:05pm

Was last year in the MWC, which is why I picked it.

Turnpike Lane

7/11/17 5:08pm

I think our "solid" definitions are a little different

2018grad

7/11/17 4:56pm

If by solid you mean weak, then totally agree.

Kerbouchard

Nope

Solid?????????????????????? Much closer to "atrocious" than "solid"

Sorry but that schedule is horrific...probably because the AD and coach know the

Huh........I can't really come up with anything positive to say about that

BoiseBlue

WESTMINSTER? Are you serious???

Cougarfan777

Preseason scrimmage game instead of Athletes in Action

Turnpike Lane

7/11/17 4:57pm

Okay, that makes more sense.

Cougarfan777

7/11/17 4:59pm

we should NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER

Cougarealist

it's a local game for local fans of both schools...

The WCC is a joke -1, so it matches very well.

blackshirts

7/11/17 6:57pm

Well that isnt very big time

BlueFrog

7/11/17 5:07pm

Wow, that sucks. Looks like we're going the yewtah route.

Ocho Cuatro

7/11/17 5:07pm

Other than it's not our choice. Teams won't play at MC

idcougarfan

7/11/17 5:23pm

Last year's UVU game should have made every team want to play BYU in the Marriot

lbmango

7/11/17 5:36pm

Exactly. This isn't 5 years ago when we were tough to beat at home.

Ocho Cuatro

7/11/17 6:22pm

That schedule is terrible, unbelievably terrible

JOPE

7/11/17 5:35pm

um...that's every year in the WCC...

ds7

7/11/17 5:45pm

I would prefer a schedule upgrade, but its no worse than last year's

cwilke1

7/11/17 9:52pm

Not good. But Alabama actually could be a really good team

22jrob22

7/11/17 5:54pm

BYU hoops is getting kinda boring...20+ wins are guaranteed with a weak non-con

Iman23

7/11/17 6:07pm

Really is barreling into obscurity.

Ocho Cuatro

7/11/17 6:24pm

Basketball isn't that interesting to me, but this is a snoozer schedule

grungeymtnman

7/11/17 6:17pm

Do you believe the staff set up an easy pre-season due to the loss of Mika?

Archaea

7/11/17 6:27pm

This schedule is about same quality as last year. BYU is not that aggressive

cwilke1

7/11/17 9:53pm

We are going to suck... that's why...

conetah

7/11/17 6:30pm

Hey we get Mississippi, Colorado, and Texas Twice!!! Wait that's (O) (O)

blackshirts

Considering we have a rematch against the team that ended our season . . .

Coop

7/11/17 7:07pm

Even if we stink we should aspire to play the best competition.

Ash

7/11/17 7:31pm

That is the worst nonconf. schedule I've seen in my lifetime. No exaggeration.

Quacker

7/11/17 7:13pm

its about the same as last year. about same number of good opponents, but fewer

cwilke1

7/11/17 9:45pm

I would rate it slightly worse than last season, which was the prior record

Confidence building schedule? Utah did it when they sucked

KendoVABeach

I predict a good out of conference record boys!!!

Gerald-DeGroot

BYU will lose <10 games this year and fans will praise Rose for his

Ash

7/11/17 9:22pm

Wow, the antithesis of the football schedule. This schedule is very very "BLAH"
