The key to BYU's non-conference issues isn't scheduling more Power teams
Its scheduling home & home with the top non-Power teams. Scheduling the best of the MWC, AAC, Missouri Valley, Colonial, A10, etc. counts just as much as playing Power teams. And many of those programs like SDSU, UNM, UNLV, Cincinnati, SMU, UMass, Temple, Memphis, Wichita, VCU, Dayton, and St. Joe's have brands that would satisfy season ticket holders. If 6 to 8 of the 13 non-conference games were part of H/H series with upper tier non-Power league teams, I think fans would be happy. If you can get 2 more games (1 Home, 1 Road) vs P5 programs, that gives BYU a very solid non-conference schedule, and still leaves games to work with for warm ups and tournaments. The truth is that until the entire top half of the WCC is in the RPI Top 100 BYU needs to schedule like this.
