It’s pretty obvious that the bye week is causing an unfair advantage to the worse seeded teams based on this start tonight and last years results. They need to revamp the entire system. It’s not like the nfl where the bye team played two weeks ago. These teams haven’t played in over a month. It needs to be addressed. Total joke.

You could play every day and not avoid that guy reading the quarterback's eyes. He was all alone.

Unfair advantage to the underdogs is what I meant and Osu losing is proving the point. Osu prob easily wins if this game is played a month ago imo

We’ll see how this one plays out

If all the bye teams lose again, then I’m certain they’ll scrap it. The B1G would raise a stink!

I agree. And not because of Ohio state. You’ll see the same thing in all 3 games tomorrow I bet.

25-26 days off between games is just way too many

I really doesn’t matter how it plays out. The point is Osu started out slowly because they are rusty. They could win and is still feel that way

If all four lose again I’ll agree with you.

Did you cry "total joke" when OSU used the momentum to beat the team last year on a bye week?

It's been this way for like 60 years.



And hell, most of you were bitching about Alabama getting a bye week in 2011 and 2017.

Okay moron. Can’t have an intelligent conversation about it without it becoming a jab at LSU?

Maybe they should practice more. Run more simulations. Play scrimmages. Do something to avoid getting rusty.

Why do you think teams make the biggest jump from week one to two after an entire camp of football?

You can’t simulate it
