New TV package negotiations delayed things a bit. Should be coming out mid-late March.

I think it's because of the new TV deal, those negotiations took some time which in turn caused the delay in getting the conference schedule completed. Also the change from Learfield to JMI could be one of the issues as well.

Please let November 21 be a blizzard with negative wind chills and 40 MPH wind gusts.

With this new MWC TV deal in place, CBS has the rights to Boyzee's conference road games. By the placement, it looks like the conference and TV networks are anticipating a very important game on 11/21 between the Broncos and Pokes.

Could this end up being an afternoon broadcast on flagship CBS? Hope so.

My thoughts exactly. Donkeys are going to throw a fit they have to come here in late November.

Good point on the Bills @ Raiders game! I'm super stoked for an October trip to Vegas to watch the Pokes whoop up on UNLV in their shiny new rental!

A lot depends on how the new defensive coaches work out, and the offense executes (mainly with new WRs).

The Utah game will be tough. I'm going to try to attend the UL game. I'll have to check to see if I'm off.

Utah should give a good snapshot regarding the level of competitiveness now vs teams of old. It's one thing playing a bunch of current MWC also rans but Utah was a pretty solid top MWC team in the heyday. I'm not sure they are quite as good as they were but should be decent and perhaps a little deeper. We'll get a good feel how far we've come from the Glenn years.

I think it's fair to say they're much, much deeper. Annually one of the better recruiting programs in the Pac-12. They'll enter 2020 as one of the most inexperienced teams in America, but it'll still be a challenge.
