I'm just excited about the series against a good opponent. I don't care about how easy it was to schedule or the politics involved. After a year of sandwiches from CR, GDL, and APR bans, I'm going to enjoy a slice of good news, no matter how easy it was served, whenever it comes. If BYU is so easy to schedule, how come we haven't scheduled them before? Our OOC schedules have been pretty weak for the past few seasons.
Also, reading between the lines, BYU very publicly turned down the Big East (pre latest waves of CR) membership. Alot was made that they found no value in the schools in the Big East. We can now scratch UConn off the list that BYU looks down upon, based on their AD's comments about UConn giving their program East Coast exposure. If BYU finds value in UConn, then others do too. Again, I'll take the positive news, no matter how small or perceived (by me) it is.
