Disagree. We have 30 OOC games per decade. This

Alright I edited it. Now the rivalries are 18 out of 46 games. Better?

That works. I'll make sure it happens.

Are we a national brand or state/regional brand?

Travel costs and recruiting base need to be taken into consideration as well.

I would rather have a game against a Pac 12 team than Utah State

Lower tier yes like UofA. If it’s an upper-tier like Oregon you replace Utah

There’s plenty of room for both. They need to play.

I think it should be more like: Utah 12/12. USU 3/12. Boise 3/12.

That is too many. I think you play one of these games a year. Maybe two every

This is where Jarom actually got it right. Each yr is Utah, Winnable G5, FCS

But it won’t be an 8-game conf schedule. So by playing Utah every year you take

And if that is the case, then you try to get Utah each year and in the off yr

I get that both are in different conferences, but it is a big game. Means a lot

Play Utah every year. Full stop. Boyzee and USU are fake news

LiveCoug

They’re not though. We need to be beating them for recruiting purposes.

andrewg3

5/13/22 8:45am

Utah, for sure. Usu? We lose very few recruits to usu

LiveCoug

5/13/22 8:47am

Not really. BSU and USU might compete a little for recruiting, but not much. And

We need to beat Utah State for recruits?

In the Big 12? No. We need to bolster our rosters with recruiting TX, FL, OK and

College football is for entertainment. Who is the USU/Boise level replacement

DiamondMo

5/13/22 8:53am

I can think of about 50 schools right now

2FarGone

5/13/22 8:57am

Plenty of good examples of entertaining games throughout independence

2 things: rn Boise and USU are better G5 teams than you might want regularly.

Ideal set up for 3 OOC games each year

5/13/22 9:01am

2 out of 3 OOC P5 games isn't wise on a regular basis

palangi

5/13/22 9:05am

Ideal is Utah every year. Yours is just personal preference

If we have a 8 game Conference schedule which I support I would like this. 9

Utah is not a rich recruiting market? I’d argue it’s our most important.

The state of Utah has been a hot bed for several years - not the level of the traditional states - but additionally, you

Right. Which is why we play Utah every year. That's who we compete with for

LiveCoug

Just rotate Utah, Boise, and USU. That, and

Utah is not going to want to play every year.
