The tweets are a little confusing. It sounds like they added a 2026 and 2027 games and the 2020 game is moved to Las Vegas from Provo.

I can't help but feel like this is a major wiff by Tom Holmoe. BYU shouldn't have 5 games with a school, only 1 of which is in Provo. And if they do, it shouldn't be a school like Arizona.

Although Arizona fans are probably saying "How do we get 5 games with a school like BYU and only two of the games are in Tucson?"

I don't like having the first n -h-h contract chnaged to a Neutral Neutral Away, but I'm holding out hope that this is part of something bigger.

The Las Vegas game might be played at the new Raiders stadium in 2021.

Originally this was setup in 2013 as a H/H/N series with the neutral game in 2016 @ Univ of Phoenix Stadium, @ Arizona in 2018, and then @ BYU in 2020.
BYU came back in 2015 and needed to change the 2020 game to make room for the Michigan State series (@ Michigan State in 2016, @ BYU in 2020) that had become available suddenly due to a cancellation. As compensation for having to change Arizona's 2020 schedule to accommodate BYU, the 2020 game in Provo was moved to 2021 at a neutral site in Las Vegas and I imagine a revenue split. 2 additional games were added as well to make it 2026 @ BYU and 2027 @ Arizona.
So IMO, it really isn't fair to look at this as Holmoe scheduled a Neutral/Away/Neutral/Home/Away 5-game series with Arizona. That would be ignoring the fact that he parlayed a home game against Arizona into a Michigan State H/H series AND a neutral site game in a NFL stadium in Las Vegas against Arizona--a short drive for many fans and which should be well represented by both schools.
