Non-Conference Scheduling rumors

He did just finish wrecking shop in the Arizona Community College League- same as UNLVs starting QB!!!

Sweet! Hosick for Heisman 2015.

Dude, come on. It's a CB rumor.

I think calling it a rumor is a bit generous. Sounds more like something someone pulled out of their ass to make people think they were an insider.

A little tidbit from Missouri executive associate athletic director Bryan Maggard about the ESPN-BYU scheduling relationship:

ESPN works pretty close with BYU with their scheduling, really tries to help them. Dave Brown is their vice president for programming. I felt like we should have had him on a retainer. He and I were talking every single day, and he did a great job trying to make this work. In essence, he's the conduit to all these five different programs. He's so well-connected in college sports. He was making phone calls trying to find schools that could go in and play at Provo next year, things like that. A lot of credit goes to Dave Brown...

Any chance (Lloyd Christmas or otherwise) that with UAB dropping football we can pick up Tennessee as our last home game? They were supposed to open versus UAB in the Titan's stadium.

Its a long shot for sure as Tennessee would never travel to Provo in the middle of the SEC season. But these dates could work. UT has a bye October 17. Our opening is October 24 or October 31. We would have to move Cincinnati to one of those dates. That may be doable since the American hasn't set its schedule yet. North Texas plays Tennessee November 14th but they have an open spot on September 5th and could move there to replace the UAB game. That would leave Tennessee with a November bye rather than one in mid-October.

North Texas is their scheduled Nobember bye that all SEC teams do, they aren't moving that game.

Due to a bad memory and laziness I am asking this question. If you can answer this off the top of your head, great, otherwise I will research it over the weekend.

We have a great away schedule next year. Michigan, Nebraska, UCLA and Missouri. Are any of those teams making a return visit within the next 3 years?

I believe UCLA and Missouri have return trips. I don't think Michigan or Nebraska do.

UCLA is in Provo for 2016. Current P5 contracts:

Utah - One away game remaining on current H-H deal. Then one more H-H contract currently in place.
Michigan - One and done
Nebraska - One and done
UCLA - H-H
Missouri - H-N in favor of BYU
Arizona - H-H-N
W Virginia - Neutral
Cal - H-H
Wisconsin - H-H
Virginia - H-H remaining on 2H-2H series.
USC - 2 for 1
Wazzu - H-H
Stanford - H-H
ASU - H-H

Michigan and Nebraska are not coming back. Missouri comes to Provo in 2020 after the game at Arrowhead in 2015. Notre Dame has 2H-2H left in the current contract if they decide to honor it.

P5 teams for 2016 are Arizona (neutral), Utah (away), UCLA (home), WVU (neutral)

2017: Utah (home) and a whole bunch of TBA

2018: Arizona (away), Cal (home), Wisconsin (away), Washington (away), Utah (away)

2019: Wisconsin (home), UVA (away), USC (home), Washington (home), Wazzu (away)

I'm assuming the "neutral" for Arizona is U of Pheonix stadium?

Yes. U of Phoenix Stadium for Arizona, FedEx Field for WVU, Arrowhead Stadium for Missouri.

SMR is going to be pissed.

Great summary. Missouri here is a ways out, but maybe they have more honor than ND and will show up.

I foresee Wisconsin backing out of that trip to Provo, if not both games.
