BYU was able to schedule an extra game, and play the Saturday prior to week one of the 2017 football season, due to NCAA exception rules that provide FBS teams that play in Hawaii an opportunity to schedule a 13th regular-season game.

Your AD was trying to get a MWC team for that week but couldn't so he got the FCS school for the 6th home game for next year.   I figured that certain MWC teams would've folded by now with scheduling BYU (the old WAC schools that have been playing you since you went Indy). It's great they haven't. I liked that call out where your AD challenged MWC teams to face BYU!

I seriously doubt BYU was trying to get a MWC school for that first game.

Good tune up for LSU in Houston the following week. If ESPN doesn't pick up the early game, BYUtv will broadcast it. Win, win.

Now that Norm Chow is gone, we should make it happen.  Again.

No thanks.  The only thing Norm did that I agreed with was cut back on the games with BYU.  Some of the best high school football talent in the Islands comes out of the Mormon community in Laie/Kahuku and we don't need to give those kids any more of a reason to opt for BYU over UH than they already have.

Speaking of which, UH just landed a 2017 commitment from one of Kahuku High School's top players, beating out BYU and Oregon State.
