We should let BYU drown in a pool of independence. Short sighted to schedule you by our conference teams.
I agree. I don’t want ECU to play BYU unless it’s a 2 for 1 for ECU. For all the talk about BYU and all their traveling fans and big tv audience....I was not impressed this year when we annihilated them.
BillyBobb, you don't understand BYU people. They think very highly of themselves. Honestly, they probably look down upon ECU. They would never sign a 2 for 1.

RE: Houston adds Home and Home with BYU and Boise
I get adding BYU on the schedule brings football sense, adding Boise however is confusing.

I’m sure they would. But right now, ECU has more going for it than BYU does. We are in a good football, basketball and baseball conference. They are not. We have great recruiting grounds. They do not. I bet our stadium is nicer than theirs too, even if smaller. I admit I’ve never been to Utah but they don’t serve alcohol/tailgate. No fun. The future looks bleak for them.

I dont know why. BYU had a very good turnout. No doubt the best of any opposing fans including JMU. They just did not have a lot of fans in the visitors sections. They were scattered all over DFW. I understand that is the way it goes with them. BYU alums don't travel. Mormons are all over the US and everywhere they come to play...the area Mormon fans come out. It is an entirely different dynamic than any college fan base.

I thought that was really surprising. In the last year, the Georgia Southern AD has landed home and homes with Houston, Boise, and BYU. That's a darn good job of scheduling for a school thats relatively new to the FBS scene.

BYU fan here. I don't look down on ECU. I enjoyed my trip to DF this year other than the poor on-field performance. I also thought there was a large BYU contingent there. Even with our poor season we averaged over 56,000 per home game(and it looked like it on TV). I wouldn't expect a 2 for 1 for BYU because of that.
