Actually no, they're not. They're getting screwed again with an incredible amount of opponents having off weeks prior to playing them, that's why this is an issue.
I've yet to see evidence that a bye week helps CFB teams. Especially good ones.

This.
Bye weeks, often times, give that team some trouble. It can really throw off the rhythm of the season if is comes at the wrong time. Bama will win though, they always do. If South Carolina or Arkansas were bitching I doubt the SEC offices even return their calls.
