How much would really change? The vast majority of college football teams...

...never play on Sunday either. I know, there's always the "BYU was seeded lower in the NCAA Tournament due to Sunday play", but is there really any truth to that when 50% of the teams don't either, and the final four/championship is Saturday/Monday? Is there anything BYU has really ever challenged for in sports that was affected by Sunday play in the last three decades?

Is it an unpopular opinion that BYU should drop the "no Sunday play"?

Or keep the HCO as purely advocacy for students with rogue Bishop’s.

Yes, completely contradictory to the Church's direction over the last 10 years.

The last 10 years they've been lightening up on old school orthodox traditions

Sabbath isn’t really a tradition.

What you "can and can't" do is full of traditions.

It is a bigger issue for sports other than football.

Let me guess, you want players to sell drugs between games too?

It’s disappointing that a lot of CBers care more about football than the fourth commandment.

No offense but, no, it's not. Sunday is a day of rest and worship, not football.

No offense but that’s your interpretation. Making my point.

It's a meaningless opinion. Not sure how popular/unpopular it is.

While we are doing the unpopular BYU should remove it's ties to the church.
