For years I just went along with my wife when she insisted

that we stop going to my parents for Christmas Eve and instead start some Christmas Eve traditions for our own family. I thought I was just being a good husband, helping her stand up for what was important to her.

Now I see the hand of divine providence in it. Thank you, honey.

6 PM on Christmas eve for the bowl game is the worst BYU scheduling news I can remember for some time.

We don't even need to worry about that. NY6 Baby!!!!

Why do you say that? Sounds like a phenomenal Christmas Eve to spend

I don’t disagree

5/23/19 2:06pm

In fact, I for sure won’t be watching it live

5/23/19 2:08pm

Probably the same for us. We usually start our Christmas Eve stuff at about 4:30

When my kids were younger I'd have felt the same way you do...

Maybe this is a new change in the church to encourage us to make every day

I’ll watch really late after Santa comes

There are very few things I won’t sacrifice for BYU football

5/23/19 2:12pm

me too. I imagine ratings for this game will be pretty dismal

We have a famil Christmas party. It’ll on for that.

Agreed. That is why the DVR is one of the greatest inventions ever. Right up

Who is the other conference that is suppose to be tied to this bowl?

Actually, I think it's BYU vs MWC. Hawaii gets the bid if they are eligible.

Richbyu

5/24/19 7:35am

Per the bowl website, this appears to be correct. BYU is taking the MWC's spot.

BYU Fan

5/24/19 8:24am

Lol. So hopefully that ends up excluding Wyoming from a bowl again.

DVR it. Problem solved. The end.

RockyBalboa

Wrapping gifts is the furthest thing from my mind Christmas Eve

5/23/19 2:56pm

Ok then DVR it. Or don’t.

RockyBalboa

5/23/19 3:00pm

No kidding. Boo hoo. “As bad as it gets”??? That was called “the mtn.”

You misspelled PAC12 Network.

5/23/19 8:37pm

Huh, this sounds like an amazing Christmas eve to me. My family does like

Uncle Bluto

5/23/19 5:19pm

hahaha. I certainly don't see anyway to drag it out for several hours.

doups3

5/23/19 5:36pm

I don't mind it. Better than the middle of a work day like last year's bowl.

andrewg3

5/23/19 3:23pm

Not as bad as a daytime bowl game on a weekday. Lots of us have jobs.

I’ll be in Hawaii for Christmas this year. Maybe I should go..

It will be over by the time midnight mass starts. That’s all I ask.

I actually like it - I have been bored on Christmas Eve before

I can't think of anything better than enjoying BYU football with the whole

5/23/19 3:50pm

I hope we get 6 wins and qualify.

rggee

5/23/19 3:52pm

Bowl games are mostly boring anyways

5/23/19 3:55pm

We have to get there first. Then I'll worry about it.

coolblue

5/23/19 3:58pm

Our bowl game last year was in Boise. This year we'll be in Hawaii.

Seasider

5/23/19 4:41pm

Exactly right. Curry House CoCoIchibanya before the game and a very Mele

Shihan

5/23/19 5:13pm

It's a matter of priorities

libertycoug

5/23/19 5:32pm

So you have short-term memory loss? We just played a bowl game not long ago

5/23/19 6:00pm

I'd much rather miss work to watch BYU play than miss our Christmas eve traditions to watch BYU play

MaxxPower

5/23/19 7:56pm

Not everyone is you. It's not close to being worse than that one.

5/23/19 8:36pm

Not getting to a bowl is worse

I just booked my airfare Mele Kalikimaka

5/23/19 8:54pm

Par for the course, BYU announces a good bowl game and people are mad.

5/23/19 9:26pm

Don't worry. At 5 - 7, we won't be going anyway.

Short Creek Cougar

5/24/19 12:52am

It’s going to be Mele Kalikimaka!!! I can’t say in our home, ‘cuz we’ll be on the island.
