Originally posted by Hot Lunch View PostI heard from reliable sources about that as well but they didn't say when it would start though. I just don't see Utah playing 7 games on the road and only 5 at home next year. Plus that schedule would be brutal. As I understand it, Utah is still playing on the road at Boise and at Pitt."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

BYU has 10 opponents so far for 2011, far as I can tell: Ore. St., Texas, USU, Utah, La Tech, Idaho, San Jose, NMSU, UCF, Hawaii
BYU away football games in 2011: Oregon State, Texas, La. Tech, Hawaii(?). Home games: USU, Utah, Idaho, San Jose, NMSU, UCF."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

Originally posted by Hot Lunch View PostI was never doubting you Surfah on the fact that Jay Drew tweeted this stuff. I am just saying that unless something changes with the road games with Boise and Pitt, Utah isn't playing in Provo next year. I am not saying Utah won't be playing in Provo next year. Utah just can't afford to go on the road to Boise, Pitt and Utah for their non-conference games. Something will have to change on Utah's end. I also think that if their was something official between the two schools their would have been a press release like their have been with the other games BYU has scheduled."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

Not sure what that means regarding where they are going to play in 2011, but it will happen.*Banned*

Boise has four nonconference games scheduled next year and they're going to be in a ten team conference. Unless the MWC is going to continue with an 8 game conference schedule (and they might do that, the Pac 10 is the only conference right now that plays nine games), then Boise will have to drop a nonconference game.Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

Originally posted by Hot Lunch View PostWon't they be in an 8 team conference? My understanding is that Nevada and Fresno ain't showing up until 2012.
Air Force is decidedly against a 9 team conference schedule because it plays Army and Navy every year and wants to keep two discretionary games, so there's a strong possibility the MWC stays with 8 conference games.Part of it is based on academic grounds.

Either way, I don't give a S%^$ what happens in the Mtn. West next year."Take it to the Bank"
