than that anomaly in 2021. Take 2022 for example. His point is that having games with both UCLA and USC can fill the void BYU filled.

USC and UCLA will quickly learn that playing any OOC games outside of Pacific Time Zone is not a good idea.

Very interesting comment from Wilner about BYU.

LOL. Wilner. He’s all over the place. So many negative BYU comments in the past

He has a standing weekly interview on KJR here in Seattle and I agree he tends

Peanut

Maybe he writes what he sees is the truth

Belboz

Truth changes depending on the day of the week? Very pac-12ish of him.

Cougarclaw

Did he recently write that BYU's conference schedule would have no PAC impact?

Belboz

3/25/23 10:46am

It might be what he considers as truth but look at reality. BYU will have good

Big 10 teams, like SEC teams, are smart, do not like to lose, tilt the field in

Maybe more like "honest opinion". I think "truth" should be kept more pure than

I think he's right. BYU was an easy team to schedule. That seems obvious

He may believe it, and may right what he believe

Also BYU’s scheduling deal w/Oregon is bank for PAC - keeps there media partners

Wyoming and CSU? You mean their future expansion candidates?

The poetic justice component is perhaps the most satisfying part in all this P12 angst.

Yep. One and dones. They have no clue.

Acorn

USC has ND annually plus B10. Doubt they add much P12.

USC and UCLA will get weary of playing OOC games outside of Pacific time

Cougarbib

3/25/23 10:36am

USC and UCLA are going to want one and dones with MWC schools to limit travel

BYUheaven

I don't believe USC has ever scheduled an FCS school.

Except BYU had 12 available openings each year

ABCoug

You mean "local" loosely or relatively. Closest PAC schools are 350miles away

Brandoblueblood

Don’t see USC/UCLA leaving home for OOC games; bring in MWC/CUSA teams

moknowssports

3/25/23 11:54am

The biggest issue is that USC/UCLA have fewer open slots than an independent BYU did

Pac 12 scheduling is gong to be challenging. Big 10 won't want 2 trips west

We already have premier matchups in the Big 12. Why look for others?

U missed the one “UCLA and USC will become the new BYU”. Pretty fun 2

Cougarbib

Which I don’t understand, even in the context he was saying it.

Well - there are two of them. And BYU did not play 5 PAC schools a year other

Cougarbib

3/25/23 10:47am

So there are 5 “open” OOC games between the two SoCal teams

mobomanjoe

3/25/23 11:29am

The point is BYU will no longer be very willing and USC will very likely

Cougarbib

3/25/23 1:35pm

You think UCLA will schedule 1 or 2 PAC games?

There are easy PAC games if u pick the right opponents. Sure. They will want

Wait until they start seeing OOC matchups between BYU and Big Ten teams moving forward.

DJROSS

BYU would be crazy to schedule Big 10 teams in the future. BYU will have too
