Does anyone know why there is only 1 bye week next season?

Why not start the season on August 29th instead of September 5th and have two bye weeks and an extra week of college football?

Because 9 games

Someone in another thread mentioned that it has to do with what actual day the college football season starts with for the entire nation. So last year everyone got two off dates. This year everyone only gets one.

If there’s anything teams should all agree on it’s having 2 bye weeks.
If you keep adding playoff games then you need 2 bye weeks to help with health.

I read this and contemplated this for a good 45 seconds, and then concluded that what the frick does the 9 game schedule have to do with anything.

The actual yearly calendar is different.

Yeah,
What does 9 games have to do with only one bye?

This is what I'm thinking, also.
Maybe they have a hard on for starting the season on Labor Day weekend. But in reality who the frick really cares if Week 1 is on Labor Day weekend?

My assumption is that the normal week zero the last few years might not exist?
Dunno how that exactly translates to 1 bye week instead of 2, but it vaguely makes sense I guess

It's not a bye week. It's an open date.

They should have moved the first weekend up

There's only 13 Saturdays next year between Labor Day weekend Sat. and Thanksgiving weekend Sat.
This year there were 14 Saturdays...
Not sure why the SEC sets up schedules this way but they do.

Start 7 days earlier and everybody gets the 2 open dates they really need.
Otherwise replace the P4 OOC with another rent a win so more players can be rested.
SEC is going to be screwed by going to 9 conference games. Will be lucky to get more than 3 teams in the playoff.
