My vote is to start the season against Kansas on 9/2, with the Big 12 opener in
Week 1. Then, BYU has more flexibility to find another OOC game on 9/9 or 9/23.
I note that USU is open on 9/23 and needs a 4th OOC game...which could perhaps serve as a replacement for the 2020 home game that we lost owing to COVID.....
