Tennessee just announced they are kicking off the 2023 season against UVA instead of at BYU

Fine but byu better get that home return game

Dang. Wasn't that supposed to be in Provo?

Maybe the date moved?

That really sucks. I hope it’s moving to another date in September.

I mean, the linked press release talks about how inaccessible a game in Utah would be for Tennessee fans, so I doubt it.

Didn't hurt BYU fans getting to Knoxville...

Unless they cancel another OOC game, they’re full
Martin Van Nostrand
5/16/22 12:16pm
A veritable murderers row OOC schedule.
VACOUGFAN
5/16/22 12:41pm
The conference schedule is a smidge better. It also means they get 7 home games
Martin Van Nostrand
5/16/22 12:45pm
When do they move to Big12?

BYU moving SUU to Sept 2nd?

I looked up the contract. $2mil to buyout
Art Director
5/16/22 12:16pm
Excellent, any decent P5s have an available OOC slot? We got $1.8M to spend!
Martin Van Nostrand
5/16/22 12:18pm
They won’t get another p5 they will get a g5 to make sure we are bowl eligible

More info from Outkick. BYU gets a $2 Million buyout.
Turnpike Lane
5/16/22 12:17pm
Wow. They really did it. $2MM.
mulletino
5/16/22 12:18pm
Not a bad deal at all for BYU.

I’d rather play Tennessee.

Me too. But better than Tennessee bailing and BYU getting something stupid like

5/16/22 12:24pm
Agreed. Beatable SEC team with brand cachet. I’d love that one back.

Sucks for BYU season ticket holders.
rivercitycoug
5/16/22 12:29pm
I'm sure they will discount the tickets appropriately.
byubyu
5/16/22 12:35pm
At least have Year 1 of B12 schedules to fall back on. That's the difference now.
Turnpike Lane
5/16/22 12:57pm
Yes but that was a great home opener
rivercitycoug

I hope those chicken turd vols lose to the cavaliers on SEC TV and in their home
gmj81
5/16/22 12:25pm
Sounds like both Tennessee and Virginia are paying BYU, BYU get first 2M in ticket revenue for the game before anyone

The SEC is the wussiest non-conference road travel entity out there.
cosmohio

Freaking SEC.
mulletino
5/16/22 12:18pm
Was that a home game for BYU?
RoyalTX
5/16/22 12:19pm
Yes.
mulletino
5/16/22 12:20pm
yes, but year 1 in B12. So will probably add a level B game for a home contest since play @Arkansas.
Turnpike Lane
5/16/22 12:20pm
I bet it's USU in Provo. They owe us from 2020.
mulletino
5/16/22 12:21pm
Did you say Level B? Good thing we have one of those close to home. #Aggies
WDaddy
5/16/22 12:23pm
USU is already booked on 9/2 at Iowa and 9/9 Idaho St. So maybe USU moves their

5/16/22 12:31pm
yes. was scheduled to be the return game for BYU's 2019 game at their stadium

The negotiations with Notre Dame give me great hope that we'll get a makeup game
TheWanderer
5/16/22 12:30pm
I mean, they are writing a $2 million check to get out of this
The Dark Knight
5/16/22 12:32pm
Which makes the "We're tryin' to generate revenue" line so silly.
TheWanderer
5/16/22 12:36pm
There's no makeup. Paying the penalty of $2MM.
mulletino
5/16/22 12:35pm
When I drove by their campus I wondered if that was a chicken farm nearby.

While I would love to play Tenn in LES, I'm not too sad about it not happening

Why can't we learn this stuff from BYU's PR department?
2FarGone
5/16/22 12:50pm
Does it really matter? UT is the one who already has the replacement game scheduled, not us.
Indy Coug
5/16/22 12:52pm
you don't announce canceling games (unless it's a long standing series). you announce new games.
molodyets
5/16/22 12:54pm
We hear about those from others first, too.
2FarGone
5/16/22 12:55pm
and i think you might be the only one that cares
molodyets
5/16/22 1:03pm
Probably not; I'm just the only one that said something . . . this time
2FarGone
5/16/22 1:09pm
What ticks me off is the timing. It wasn’t until we had cleared the schedule
TerpCoug
5/16/22 12:55pm
not that simple. Boise St. already has 2 big games scheduled for 9/2 and 9/9
cwilke1
5/16/22 12:57pm
Not necessarily, big 12 teams have done mid season OOC games like us and Baylor
TerpCoug
5/16/22 1:09pm
but also a question if BYU can fit this one new game back into a home and home
cwilke1
5/16/22 1:26pm
So playing Virginia in Nashville is better revenue than playing BYU with their
Utefaninenemyland
5/16/22 12:56pm
Sounds like you don't know how revenue share works.
Turnpike Lane
5/16/22 1:00pm
Hmm I would just think they could have payed the buyout and played BYU in
Utefaninenemyland
5/16/22 1:04pm
Why would byu want to have a 2-0 deal with Tennessee?
BYU '80
5/16/22 1:56pm
Does Tennessee really make enough in a neutral site game to buyout $2M?
TheWanderer
5/16/22 1:08pm
Ticket revenue, plus they now control TV revenue. So yes they will.
Turnpike Lane
5/16/22 1:10pm
The neutral site matchup is paying 2mm to BYU, and 1.5mm each to UT and UVA.

Such a narrow-minded perspective. Real question - Who's fanbase is more global -
BYU I Bleed Blue
5/16/22 1:28pm
Yeah in an nfl stadium in their home state. Pretty obvious
BYU '80
5/16/22 1:55pm
I like the idea of having a weak OOC schedule for our first couple of years in the B12. We just aren't deep enough yet.
HarlemCoug

This makes me so freaking upset
BYU Tuba
5/16/22 2:25pm
Fine. Replace TN w/an automatic win. SEC Ark and the 1st B12 season is already

Possibilities for September 2nd Replacement
krindorr
5/16/22 3:02pm
Pitt would be cool but their OOC is Cincy, West Virginia and ND. Bama doesn’t
TerpCoug
5/16/22 3:05pm
The ACC plays only 8 conference games, so they still have one OOC available
krindorr
5/16/22 3:10pm
Watch out - this may be a start to reduce B12 stature.

What games from that season had we already canceled? Would have been nice
ColonelMustard
5/17/22 1:23pm
Yeah, but Tennessee was hoping we'd pay them to cancel it
