They have 11 straight games scheduled for weeks 2-12, and already have 5 home games (Hawaii, Ohio, Maine, App State, Georgia Southern). Coastal Carolina may be an option because they will count as FBS in 2017. It also seems like it would make sense to move the BYU game to the first week in December (conference championship week) for maximum flexibility to schedule the 12th game.

BYU probably doesn't want to play 3 road games in a row in November. But, BYU plays at Hawaii in 2017, so they could play an FCS opponent on November 18 and move the UMass game to December 2. But the chances for COLD and snow in Provo go up quite a bit between mid-November and early December...Could be fun!
