BYU ND in Vegas? I say, no deal.

I am so done with ND. Goodbye and good riddance.

Yep. Get whatever payout they would owe and be done.

But BYU also needs games and quality opponents. This provides all three.

There are more than 120 other options

There are maybe 5 opponents that would match this game at Allegiant stadium

I don't enjoy getting "big timed," even if it's by one of CFB's biggest brands
reddead
7/12/21 3:37pm
Agreed. But if part of this neutral game deal is a payout then I'm amenable.

They cancelled the return games in Provo after we played there...

Yeap, get Southern Utah on the schedule stat.

ND is still big brand and a Vegas game would be huge for any program

How about we do it in south bend but it counts as a BYU home game

I'd fly out to see that. Lol.

...and Rudy leads the BYU team out onto the field!

If they can get this next year, it's a no brainer.

Would that be the first neutral site game where BYU is actually closer?

Provo is closer to Vegas than Tucson
LiveCoug

Not if you fly. 1:10 from TUS, 1:15 from SLC

Take the $1M and use it on the weight room.

True though a payout would be inconsequential to them so why not just

Money is most definitely our problem

I think you and I both agree that not being in a P5 is our real problem
2FarGone
7/12/21 11:20am
They are both important. But we are so far behind the P5s in terms of revenue
Backcountry
7/12/21 11:25am
Much, much rather have ND in Vegas than some G5 team in Provo
LiveCoug
7/12/21 8:54am
I’d take that game in a heartbeat
BYUheaven
7/12/21 9:01am
I'd take that game in a second. Tee's up other marquee games in Vegas for us and
SLIVER
7/12/21 9:07am
Absolutely play this game!
SUAVO
7/12/21 9:07am
I’d play that game every year in Vegas and never return to South Bend.

Every bar/club/dispensary in Vegas when BYU and Notre Dame fans come to town
CougarHut

You don't know many ND fans.
ParentingNotForSissy
7/12/21 9:21am
Of course you take this game. This is not even a real question.

Agree. Make them come to provo or pay.
Backcountry

Technically, the Irish own BYU 4 more games, two in Provo and 2 in South Bend.
LEDSFW
7/12/21 9:19am
Yep. I wouldnt play in Vegas without a game in Provo also.
Backcountry
7/12/21 9:21am
Never return to South Bend until they come to Provo. I would be ok with 3 of those 4 games (or even all 4) in Vegas.
SpiffCoug
7/12/21 10:16am
This is the way.

Just as long as it is understood that this is not a fulfillment of the current
gmj81
7/12/21 11:18am
Yep. This is not a concession of the BYU home games that are owed. Playing ND is a good thing for BYU. As is a game in

Take it, show big attendance and TV viewership and use it to get other big games

BYU's ticket allotment better be 50k if this replaces a home game
CaliWG

Any game with ND keeps BYU in the public eye. Do it.

I’ve been consistent in this. Provo or write us a check
spugeddy24
7/12/21 9:53am
People forget they'd owe us multiple game checks, so it'd be at least $2M
CaliWG
7/12/21 10:00am
Its about context. Of course we need games, quality opponents and, ignoring
rocker
7/12/21 10:07am
It’d bug me not to get a true home game from that contract but feel that may be the best realistic option so take it.

It would be fine with me. No Catholics in Vegas.

I'm there

I would tell them to take a hike, but Tom will take the game for sure.

I don't know what the BYU-ND contract says, so I don't really care any more.

this is just some dude opinion. Nothing from ND/BYU athletics departments. meh

Time lost and games played there are sunk costs

USC likes to claim the Rose Bowl as their second home stadium…

Yep. No deal. Play us in Provo or buy us out.

ND (despite coming up short on biggest stage recently) is elite. Play the game.
