Talking of BYU and Houston.
When they played each other, both ran over 100 plays.
Watched portions of BYU-Boise last week. BYU ran a play every 18 seconds +/- according to commentators.
They are UConns oppening opponent next year at the Rent.
1) What an awkward initiation for UConns new coach
2) If it weren't for the idiots running the BE, could you imagine what an FB conference with the likes of Boise, BYU, SMU, Houston, UCF, Cincinnatti, WVU, TCU, Louisville, Rutgers, UConn, Pittsburg, Temple, ECU, USF, Syracuse may have been like? (In theory, I'm assuming (a) BEFB breaks from BEBB (b)defections over last four years don't happen, (c) BEFB expands to become first super 16 team conference.(d) BYU agrees to join (e) TCU, Boise don't defect before joining) Very strong FB conference, lead by red teams........with blue teams elevating their play by osmosis.
3). I know I'm dreaming, but I wish 5-6 years ago someone had the guts to "slam dunk" BE leadership in a garbage disposal.
In any case, I'm not too sure the AAC is going to be the "garbage heap" to the extent most were postulating. The league does to appear to have to very good young, up and coming QB's and programs
