re: Future sched news - '24 M&W game on 4/20

I'd like to see us settle into a base formula for our OOC. Assuming it stays at 4...

- BCS level home/home
- midmajor 2 for 1
- 2 FBS home game (no FCS)

That would give us only 6 home games once every 3 years and 7 the others, plus the neutral site Jerryworld game.

I'd schedule the midmajor around the BCS opponent. If you play ASU, maybe add in UNLV. Then offset the home games so you play in that part of the country a couple of years in a row and have their local media also following our home games vs them. Coordinated brand enhancement. You could do something like that in the Carolinas too wrapped around the USCe game. You could pick up Clemson/NCSU/UNC type of opponent as the BCS offset with USCe home/home and then grab a 2 for 1 with someone like ECU or even Wake or Duke.

Basically I think we need to give more thought to our scheduling and what we're after. Everything has always seemed rather haphazard. I like what a school like UCLA has been doing. They play in Texas 4 of 5 years (at tu, at UH, at Rice, skip, vs tu at Jerryworld). Upcoming they play UNLV/Nevada coordinated. They just seem to have a more thoughtful approach than most other schools.
