"RU's early season schedule is particularly advantageous, having extra rest against each of their first 4 P4 opponents (8 days for BC +2, 8 for USC +1, 8 for IU +1, 14 for MD +7)"

"Rest Advantage." Ha ha. Somebody (Mike Broadbent) has too much free time...

Heard about the SEC completely screwing Arkansas. They travel to Utah for a 10:15 pm est kickoff on Sat. 12th then have to go to Georgia on Sat. the 19th for a 12 pm est kickoff.

The Razorbacks schedule a tough OOC game and then you fv*k them. They should have gone the Georgia route and booked Tennessee St. and WKU, both at home. Their fans and coaches have a right to be pissed off.

In my opinion, this is a legitimate advantage so it's great news to see we are in a good place with this.

Bye weeks help individual injured players. I doubt there’s a prove-able advantage…especially if you go on the road after the fabled rest

How is that being screwed over? Two road games in a row? Awww terrible! Last year A&M had three sec road games in a row plus a bye and wasn’t home for 38 days…big deal

They play Sat. with a 10:15 pm start time then have to play the next Sat. with a 12 pm kickoff. That would be like the 2024 year we played USC with a 11 pm start time. Then have the B1G making us travel to Minnesota for a 12 pm start time. But they didn't, they gave us a bye week.

This will be comforting when the team is losing to to everyone but cupcakes. At least they are well rested!
