BYU Football Independence is a Failure

After glancing at the 2013 schedule, it is clear that Football Independence is not working.

• The number of Tuesday and Wednesday regular season games has put too much pressure on the academics of the football squad, not to mention made the games harder to attend.
• The inability to get BCS opponents to travel to Provo is frustrating. I mean, Idaho State?
• Playing five or six games on ESPNU leaves me disappointed at the current ESPN deal, and even longing for a return to mtn.
• BYU's inability to gain any traction on national TV is causing a noticeable dip in recruiting.
• November opponents such as Wisconsin and Notre Dame are just not cutting it.
• I miss playing Wyoming and Colorado State.
• The games aren't in the afternoon anymore.
• That MWC patch looked great on the blue and white uniform.
• BYU's attendance has declined to near Rice Stadium levels.
• BYU Legal Counsel is a ‘piece of work' and all one needs to do is look at the football behemoth that is the Big East Conference to understand why.
• Those crazy Mormons are just giving away money by refusing to subsidize other football programs.
• When will BYU realize that it isn't Notre Dame and just join a conference already?
• Does BYU really think it is going to win a national championship?
• It looks more and more evident that the BYU brass is going to have to think long and hard about a 2-for-1 arrangement with not only Utah, but Utah State as well.
• It's clear that Football Independence is not working.
