Interesting. We now get two bye weeks, which I like.

Cool! Hopefully we'll still be playing for something once November rolls around.
I hate bye weeks and now we have two of them. I know it is good for the team to heal up, but ruins my weekend in the Fall when we aren't playing.
at least one is before texas that should be good for our guys
But now we get to watch them longer instead of the season ending before Thanksgiving.Quote:

Breaks before Texas & Okie State. Sounds good to me.
And 1 extra day before Oklahoma.Quote:

There is also the possibility that Farmageddon will become a big deal with it being on conference championship weekend. And the added TV potential is great.
Good job Big XII!
December football in Manhattan, burrrrr.
