Thought I remember reading.. that we play .. like 6 opponents in a row
the week after their bye week...
so NW & the next 5 opponents have two weeks each.. to prep for us.. and get healthy

For the remainder of this year, we catch these teams in that situation.....

Iowa (although this is a push since we are in the same spot)
PSU
Purdue

So only two teams remaining truly have a schedule advantage against us remaining.

Two predictions:

1. OSU handles BYE easily. In fact they could literally take Saturday off and not lose this one.

2. People will still be here on Sunday complaining about the secondary, why Guiton didn't get any snaps, and the ideal personnel groups and substitution packages.

Bye will put up at least 200 yards on our secondary.

Reminds me of a quote Barry Switzer (Oklahoma's head coach) made in a pregame press conference back in 1983 before playing Ohio State; (note: OSU's QB Mike Tomczak had a pretty good pass completion percentage): "We couldn't complete that % of passes against air". :lol:

Anyway Ohio State won that game 24-14.



Anyway I like our chances this Saturday against "BYE".

Who is carrying the game this week against BYE? This seems like one for the dynamic duo on ESPN2, they are the pumpkin best announcing crew there is and Galloway just gets smoother with every play....

I still think ESECPN gives us a hard time for scheduling BYE. Gonna have to roll up the style points on this one to impress the pollsters....

This week is going to be a tougher Saturday than the one against Florida A&M.

The bye couldn't have come at a better time to iron out plays, rehab injuries, and prep everyone for a long battle towards an Big Ten title and possible NC.

True story. My first year of peewee football (2nd grade) our week 1 opponent was none other than the aforementioned BYE. I turned to my dad and said " we get to play some team named bye the first game".

Always think of that moment when we have the dreaded bye team.
