Of course a lot of people will laugh and say its just UConn, but how many other FBS schools will make the same decision?

And you are not Notre Dame.

I checked BYU for fun. They currently show six games. If they'll come to Dallas, we should replace the TCU game with them.

It's hard to believe they would do it, but you're right, Dukie - that would be a great addition.

Connecticut opted out of football when they left The American.

Unless they added several other games, that still only puts BYU at 7 games.
