Schedule San Jose State, New Mexico State, Wyoming, SMU, Houston, or any other D1 school in place of BYU and all would be well.

In this way we get the satisfaction of playing a more respectable schedule albeit that that the only distinction may be the FBS vs FCS argument and nothing more. And we royally piss off BYU fans.

Win-Win!

But please ... posters on this board need to open their eyes to what I am saying. I'm not arguing that we keep BYU on our schedule for any other reason than that I would rather play them than directional D1-AA. That's it. Substitute any D1-A name in place of BYU and I am on board.

NEW: I suspect their consternation with the FCS game going forward has more to do with their desire to keep playing BYU than it does with being opposed to scheduling an FCS school.

NEW: The point of my post is that whether we continue to schedule BYU or we replace BYU, the FCS argument is completely unrelated.

NEW: No, it's not. There is no reason we HAVE to schedule an FCS school.

NEW: You are correct about Utah not HAVING to schedule an FCS school, but you are creating a straw man when you bring BYU into it.

NEW: My only complaint has been that if we are dropping byu, it better not be for an FCS team. There's plenty of FBS cupcakes we can schedule, and I would be far more interested in a game vs. UTEP or Northern Illinois than I am for Northern Colorado. (nm)
