That's true. It would have to be in that sweet spot of teams wanting to boost

strength of schedule. Most P5 teams would rather sit and complain about BYU's schedule than actually play them. Most lower tier teams wouldn't want to play BYU since it would simply be a money game.

Assuming no cancellations, here is every FBS team with availability to play BYU

With your proposed changes BYU's schedule could be:

ZacSeljaas'Stache

9/8/20 3:49pm

Who is the team that was scheduled to play Rice, and Rice cancelled Oct 3?

Good point. They were scheduled to play Marshall.

I’d be fine adding a 2nd game against any of our home opponents.

if we're talking "ideally", then UCF and Memphis would be at LES 🙂

If only 6K fans in the stands, I'd rather play them in LES in a future season

OK, you have a point there...but I'm guessing any of these games we get this year will be one-offs, not series.

@Navy and @Army are part of a series. If we schedule another '20 road game

I'm on the fence there. Very tempting to agree. But there's a part of me that also will take any decent one-off this

I'd take any and all games we can get, but my wish list:

I'd prefer to be done by T-giving. The mix of COVID & Flu season could be bad

Doubt many coaches will want to play BYU after last night.

Those AAC teams should have an incentive since BYU could provide a schedule boost in their quest to get the CFP slot

adding your suggested 4 would be fantastic - App St., UCF, Memphis, Marshall

Play App State on 12/5. Gives BYU an interesting late-season game.

App State would have to be a Thu or Fri game b/c they play the following Wed

That would work with the first week of October because of General Conference
