I have a niece who just graduated from BYU and is attending TAM this fall.

She's already put together a group of 6-8 BYU fans to attend the Baylor game and is super excited.

I know that's just one anecdote - and homecoming may have some draw. But I don't think this is just about homecoming. I think there are a bunch of BYU fans in Texas, as well as some who are willing to travel.

Baylor has an interesting asterisk on their schedule next to the BYU game ...

You would think their Hall of Fame weekend with a game against Texas would be a larger draw.

Bigger than Texas and OK? Who actually travels to their school for homecoming?

Or it might be a secret Baptist signal to wear a bike helmet, white shirt & tie.

I would assume that Texas (2-hrs from Baylor), OU, and Tech would be huge draws

I don't think homecoming gets that many more fans. Texas fans, etc. travel

There would be no asterisk if they were playing UTEP for homecoming.

Don't teams typically schedule weak teams on Homecoming?

For a second I thought the ‘o’ was a ‘p’ on the game day celebration for OU.

They should print that and put it on the back of every players locker.
