Why would Miami or UNC travel to Boone?

Miami got behind in scheduling. UNC doesn't want to travel out of state.

I could see where UVA or BYU could schedule at LU, but there might be a different view at those schools. UVa might wish to avoid playing too many instate schools (which is the prevailing view of P5 teams vs instate teams), BYU might not want to travel across the country.

Source for the bolded information please (speculation does not count).

Due to what would seem to be a very high ceiling for growth, Virginia would be ill advised to not schedule a game against Liberty. The program has really fallen behind and they now run the risk of falling behind to a G5 independent program. The evidence is in the beat down they took at the hands of Richmond last season.

BYU is playing UMass in Boston which renders the travel across the country point moot. For schools in the west but not on the coast, travel is always going to be needed.
