If you remember last year MZ had a bye week while we were down in J-ville and came to Athens and flat out gave us fits. Several of us ranted that SEC should not let a team in your own division get a bye week before a game without it being reciprocated. (ie Ga / Florida)
Hold my beer says the SEC office in 2024 too Florida - we will give both Texas and Old Miss bye weeks before they play you late in the season. In fact, we'll make you play a tough cluster of games and give the other team bye weeks. WTH?
I see no logical reason for giving teams bye weeks this late in season. Completely gives teams to much of an advantage. I would argue that a group of 4 SEC Teams should take bye weeks together and each should play each other following the bye week, especially this late in season. Bye Weeks in Sept or early October or not similar to bye-weeks in mid November, Just not fair scheduling by SEC at all and almost looks amateurist........
