Only one good name in the newly accounced games of at Iowa St. I was hoping for better RPI. We would be better off doing a home and away with Weber St and Ut St.

At least it is better than Utah's

I like it. Wish there were better teams coming to the MC. I like the potential of of the Coaches vs Classic. Tough Road games that could really help boost resume.

I would like to see better rpi or name teams. Only 1 PAC12 team and it is their worst. A couple of WAC teams. Too bad the MWC won't play us. Those would be better too.

Really good road schedule, pathetic home schedule. Utah state is the best we can get? That sucks.

I hope this schedule does not hurt our chances for J Parker.

It looks like Dec. 1 is a red-letter day for me! I'll make my plans early!

17 games, if I counted right. BYU should go about 15-2 with that schedule.

Wow! Cupcake city more than usual? It's certainly a way to pad the record. Good for building confidence and rhythm in the O, but maybe lead to overconfidence? Hopefully we can steal one back from Baylor with a few of their folks gonzo in RP III and Asey.
Hard of say whether this is uninspiring to Jabari. Big programs play cupcakes as well. But of FAR more importance, will Jabari be able to actually VIEW the games--and will his parents be able to if he comes to BYU-- and the resounding answer is YES! YES! YES!
C'mon Jabari. You would be ESPN's poster child!!!! And the envy of all other big time recruits, bc while they will be buried in early season irrelevancy, you would be making highlights on live tv and then making the top ten plays of the day regularly!
