In general, those people telling us we should reject a Notre Dame game are the

People who want us to join a G5 conference. Bottom line is they don’t want us to succeed at independence and would rather have us not be able to schedule big teams and a worthy list of opponents because it makes their end goal of destroying our program more likely. They call themselves realist

This question is a good barometer on whether your opinion is worth considering.

That is leaving out a lot of context. If this was a one-off game, it is an

It requires no context. Are you in or are you out?

7/12/21 11:39am

It does require context. If BYU is going to be a team that lets P5 teams push

Unfortunately, BYU doesn't have a negotiating position with ND, at least not

They can enforce the original contract and take the buyout. ND can send a $3M

7/12/21 12:42pm

And you lose ND for any future games.

whirl

7/12/21 2:02pm

Exactly. And why does a fan want BYU to get a $3M check instead of watching BYU

SLIVER

Yep. It's the principle of it. Some of us would rather not be big-timed

What future games? None on schedule and if the terms are South Bend 2 for 0

7/12/21 2:57pm

Sure would be a shame to miss out on more deals like this with ND... /s

What future games are you expecting?

Absolutely not true! I strongly believe we should go AAC, also play in Vegas

Welcome to the board; odd choice for a first post

Attention Real BYU fans:

7/12/21 2:57pm

In your original you said the people want AAC are the same who dont want ND inLV

krindorr

7/12/21 3:09pm

FWIW, seems like almost nobody wants to push back on ND in LV

krindorr

7/12/21 3:17pm

ND owes us a game in Provo. IF they come here I'm all for it. In Vegas? Nah, give me the $1M and upgrade the weight rm

7/12/21 2:55pm

You'd rather see ND cut BYU a check rather than watch BYU play ND in October?

SLIVER

7/12/21 3:24pm

We can go play ND 2 more times in South Bend in October. They'd take those games. So the where does matter.

7/12/21 3:33pm

I'd take the game in Vegas as long as their contract to play in Provo remains

reddead

7/12/21 7:35pm

So you’re out?

7/12/21 7:47pm

If Las Vegas is as close as ND is willing to come to Provo, then yes

Oops sorry, I had been ignoring you. What was it you were saying?
