BYU wouldn't be bad. It depends if they want a home and home though, while I think we probably just want a 1 game agreement to be played at BDS.
I doubt CNS would want a second neutral site game, but we could get a decent opponent with that as a one game option.

I wish we would play an in state school like Jacksonville State or Troy. Keep the money we pay to other small schools like UT Chattanooga at home.
How about a home and home with Hawaii we owe them one. Speaking of owing them how about Utah. I would think if we are willing to do a home and home we could pick up a team like one of these or a Wake Forest, Duke type team.
We played a one game deal with BYU back in 1998.
They were the first opponent in BDS after it was expanded to 83,818 with the east upper deck. Shaun Alexander scored a school record 5 TDs that evening.

I wonder what would happen if an SEC school from the east wanted in, one that Bama doesn't play next season! That would be sweet.
This can't be possible.
Where are all those schools with all those tough-talking, loud-mouthed fans who are always CRYING and WHINING about how Alabama DOES NOT PLAY ANYBODY and GAMES THE SYSTEM and RIGS IT?
Where are all the big, bad boys?
Where's Boise and their loud-mouthed President?
Where in the world are the teams who think we're overrated and easy pickings?
WHERE ARE YOU? YOU ARE BEING PAGED!!!!

Hopefully, it will get worked out. Wasn't Southern Miss a late addition to 2014? I like what Selma posted. Where are all the big boys? But, I wonder if we will have to play it as a road game.
I don't understand why teams aren't lining up to run the score up on us. We don't play anybody. Saban will never win another game now that McCarron has gone - he didn't win a title without him on the roster and never will.
Where is Charlie Weiss, who said the SEC is overrated? Bring your Jayhawks down here and show us how it's done.
Where is Oregon, who screamed, "We Want Bama" last fall?
Where are all these schools now?

We probably need a home game due to the AD budget, but how great it would be to go to one of those places and show them what they "want".
John David Phillips. Any of y'all remember him? I remember there was high hopes for him that year but he struggled and yes, the humidity was brutal for that game....and everybody got cramps. That was a great game!
That was a great game. BYU played very well that night.
Oh and Selma, I'm sure all of those teams would just LOVE to play us and show us how its done, but they just can't work out a free weekend. Funny how that works, ya know?
I like the challenge of the Mountain West teams. they have good quality players and all seem to have an explosive offense that would be a challenge to work on. It would help us with what we are seeing now more in the SEC. Like say a Nevada.
I was there. It was a great atmosphere and an excellent ball game if you like offense. Shaun stole the show that night.
Oregon is busy playing against Michigan state this year...Neither of those teams backed out of that series. We are the ones who looked scared canceling the MSU series.
They would be a respectable opponent, I remember when we played them back in the late 80's and early 90's some of those years they were the best team in Mississippi. I am glad we picked them up this year and hope this 2015 deal comes through as well.
Some of the games were tougher than they should be, yes, with a couple of losses actual peppered in. However, I can't think of a more boring matchup from a fan perspective - at least this fan. I know they are in a bind though, its so late in the scheduling cycle.
