It will be interesting to see what happens in November and December. BYU has 3 open dates late in the season. Any Pac 12, Big 10 or Big 12 school with a sudden opening in the schedule because of an opponent's Covid issues is going to be pressured to play them.
Ducking them means having to justify to the selection committee why your league deserves a bid over BYU when one of your schools could have played them but would not.
