Proximity will keep that from happening

Extra distance = extra travel costs. Everyone will be trying to keep expenses down. This is why I'd wager we are most likely to end up in the MWC and after that the PAC12. PAC12 before Big12 simply because we have a lot of fans in the PAC footprint which will increase attendance.

If the NCAA goes to Conference-Only, Who will BYU Play

Easiest thing to do is just play out the rest of the season as scheduled from

Agreed...

Bunch of 3-6 teams in bowls would be stupid.

4/8/20 1:18am

Why would there be 3-6 teams in bowls?

Actually this could be the silver lining for BYU. P5 teams not getting the 3OOC

We also didn't think they'd cancel the biggest tournament in the USA.

Or just play the season? seems pretty simple to me

They can spread the virus for possibly two weeks before they show symptoms.

4/8/20 10:56am

Agree but it's all so political now it's going to be a huge mess.

4/8/20 11:19am

You have way more confidence in Holmoe than I. I’m certain they’re not working

4/8/20 5:12am

They play no one and win.

Could BYU sue the teams for breach of contract?

Brigham

No. Because all contracts have an escape clause regarding

The NCAA doesn't have a voice in the issue.

I wouldn't count on Notre Dame...I guess I'm snakebit.

I'm sure they could help us out and allow us to play at South Bend, in exchange

did you even read his post?

I’m sure the ACC would love to make ND a full member for a season.

Metallicat

This is correct

So you're saying BYU could go undefeated? Sweet!

JONBOY

We will get temporary membership to some conference

Hopefully after a season in the B12 they want us permanently

puntersarepeople

4/8/20 9:55am

I think the MWC is more likely. PAC after that

shakarocks

Tom needs to get on the phone and plan ahead for this. Call in some favors.

Dr MoBYU

Proximity will keep that from happening

shakarocks

4/8/20 10:52am

And why would they do that?

Cougar TD

4/8/20 11:59am

NCAA would help out the few independents. It’s easy enough to address.

Dr MoBYU

4/8/20 12:02pm

Unfortunately, the NCAA no longer has a voice in the governance issues.

Everyman

4/8/20 12:11pm

Exactly, I don't see any reason the conferences would add BYU.

Cougar TD

4/8/20 12:15pm

Well, neither does ESPN but NCAA and ESPN would help us.

Dr MoBYU

4/8/20 12:20pm

Just like they helped in gaining a Big 12 invitation.

Everyman

4/8/20 2:23pm

ESPN might be a better ally in helping BYU with an abbreviated schedule.

Rob of NV

4/8/20 12:13pm

ESPN would want to have as many of the games they have lined up played.

Cougar TD

4/8/20 12:16pm

My prediction: Football will have a full season, and by late June, our biggest

I hope we redshirt all of our starters if that is our schedule. Just use

BWAHAHAHAHA

Logistically that would create a scholarship crunch

Some teams could choose to play twice - do an in-season home and home.
