BYU has completed their 2012 slate by scheduling a home and home with Washington State. They will play in Provo in 2012 and in Pullman in 2013. The dates have not been announced, but will probably be September 29 for the 2012 game. This game, or Oregon State, will be the 2012 homecoming game.

Can BYU get to the BCS with this schedule?
-If they run the table? Probably.
-With 1 loss? If that loss is a close one @ Notre Dame and Notre Dame is also in the BCS or a close one @Utah or @Georgia Tech and those schools win their respective conferences. And if the BCS slate includes some 2-loss schools then maybe. It would depend on where the Cougars are ranked. Boise State will be without Kellen Moore in 2012, but almost nobody wins on the blue turf. Washington State and Oregon State have a long way to go to be competitive in the PAC-12 and BYU has them at home. A loss to a WAC school or at home to Hawaii (who is a much weaker team away from Oahu) will be the kiss of death for the BCS. Even though Weber State is good for an FCS team and are coached by Ron McBride who has a good record in Provo, a loss here would cost the Cougars a ton of respectability.
-With 2 losses, forget about it.
