Kentucky would be the biggest non-conference game for BYU... ever?

spidercoug

11:18am

Hard to say, Duke and Kentucky are probably on the same level.

Archaea

11:18am

I think Pope makes Kentucky bigger than Duke.

spidercoug

For us at least. But i definitely want to play kentucky more than duke.

We played UNC 15 years ago or so.

What's the financial incentive to playing Duke and UK in the preseason?

11:20am

To make games people will watch in pre-season. So many of the pre-season games

Archaea

11:21am

maybe OP meant non-conference, which usually precedes conference play?

COUGND

that's what I mean. Pre-conference season.

Archaea

11:24am

Ah, that makes sense.

11:52am

Not exhibition. Just pre-conference play.

What I meant. Thanks for the correction.

Archaea

I don't know about that. OP says they're pre-season games. I wonder if we need

My guess is both would be neutral courts. But I have no idea.

Allstate

Marriott and Rupp are not big enough?

By "pre-season" do you mean non-conference schedule? Or one of these exhibition

MaximusMeridius

Not sure if you care but that's completely incorrect terminology

MaximusMeridius

2:41pm

I don’t really care. I call those exhibitions.

Archaea

5:21pm

Would have to be in late-October, no?

1:56pm

That’s a lot of road and neutral court games

Is BYU committed to an early, pre-B12 season tournament next yr?

Not at this point

Investment in AJ will payoff huge for BYU. The ROI is already coming together!

How hard is it to get permission to play games before the season? Like October?
