BYU supposed to play SDSU on 11/14 in Provo before Covid hit. You have to wonder if BYU would rather play in San Diego instead due to the weather in December. View

@CriddleBenjamin Benjamin Criddle

4:17pm

Or a neutral site like Sam Boyd Stadium if the new stadium is unavailable.

It’s not very pleasant in Vegas in December

So BYU is essentially taking AFA's place against Boise, because AFA is going to face Army that same weekend.

Does Air Force not play navy?

yaxcoug

4:10pm

I believe they play before MWC starts

DeekLyfter

They play Navy this week, so it doesn't conflict with the conference schedule.

jreid191

4:11pm

AFA has an open date on December 12th, that I'm guessing they are leaving open to play Navy...

Coug

4:12pm

AF and Navy play on Saturday

rggee

4:13pm

Nevermind... AFA plays Navy this week... weird that AFA and SDSU aren't scheduled then...

Coug

4:13pm

SDSU isn't an open date its TBA; so something is in the works for them

Gotcha

Coug

4:18pm

AFA will not fill 12/12 because it is their finals week.

That means SDSU needs a non conference game. Not many options
