BYU vs houstin 2013 and 2014. There place first. I guess we're going to play alot of games in Texas over the next several years, to help with recruiting.

This I like.



Mostly because I live in Texas. :)

2 games. 2013 @ Houston, 2014 at LES.



That makes 3 C-USA teams we have added since going Indy (UCF, S. Miss, and Houston). Appears we are replacing the WAC schools with C-USA teams after 2012. An upgrade for sure, but not seismic. Need more BCS level schools to add weight to the schedule. But these games add solid mid-level opponents.

Desperate for home games in 2014 - road slate is pretty much full. Houston at home is solid in that year...but I agree - need some more sexy announcements now.

I view this as an upgrade from a WAC team. I like that. 2014 has seven good games plus Utah St which I like.

I kind of like the CUSA additions we have if for not the simple fact that they may be comparable to MWC or WAC in quality of play....they are in the East and give more exposure to the east coast.

The top half of MWC. We need to get away from playing bottom half teams in our schedule. Utah St. is the exception.

Let me clarify this too though, I would prefer to be scheduling mostly schools in AQ conferences that are lower to mid tier with a few top tier programs every year. We already have that going with our scheduled games with the :utard:...They meet that lower tier of the AQ conferences. :evil:

I would like a schedule that is all or almost all top 60 teams with a couple top 25 teams.

I agree with this. If BYU can't play "major" teams let them play "nonmajor" teams from prime recruiting areas like Texas.
