What are possible home on home series?

First off I think a potential solution to the whole playoff deal is for every P5 to play 8 conference games then 2 other P5’s and 2 G5’s for their non-conference games. The G5’s would play 8 conference games then the 2 P5’s and 2 other G5 non-conference games. Nobody plays FCS except possibly for Spring games. Let the FCS teams get a smaller payday in the Spring P5 or even G5 Spring games. Allows for the fans to see more of an actual game and lets the FCS guys make some cash. I’d be fine with App only playing regional G5’s for our 2 non P5 non-conference games. Just do the home and home with Charlotte, ECU, Marshall, etc. No matter what those are sellouts at the Rock. While a H&H with BYU sounds cool it does nothing for our recruiting. If a schedule that includes ECU, Charlotte and 2 good P5’s isn’t enough to prop up our ranking then it just isn’t gonna work.

Also I disagree that a H&H against someone like BYU wouldn't help recruiting. That's the sort of made for TV game that can actually garner some media coverage and a decent TV slot.

Agree about BYU. BYU is what I consider a niche opponent that could bring a decent contingent of fans. There is a decent population in NC that prescribe to the Mormon faith. Given the military presence in NC, I would put the service academies in the same category.

Agreed. BYU is a marquee brand. If App plays BYU anywhere, there’s a ton of eyeballs on that game that we don’t typically get.

Look at the ratings for that Coastal-BYU game. Make no mistake, it paid dividends for the beach chickens.

Just to clarify, I was talking about BYU being a niche opponent in terms of a non regionalized opponent that would bring fans to KBS.

Although I would love to play Army and/or Navy in a general sense as bucket list item is to attend an Army/Navy game...those types of offenses is something you see once in a decade unless you are doing n their conference or Notre Dame (plays Navy)....that would be tough challenge....

I think our own fans would turn out in big numbers to watch us play BYU simply because they've heard of them. BYU has P5 level name recognition.

Probably true (if it actually happened) but it likely would be relegated to week night.

We have more control over that with an OOC game.

I would have thought so, but then Marshall happened.
