It is never too early to look at the upcoming college football season, and today the focus is on who has the most strategically placed bye weeks in the country.

The bye week is a very important thing to look at when previewing the college football season.

This off-week gives teams a break from the nonstop grind that is the college football season.

Teams use this week to game-plan for future opponents, get players healthier and it gives coaches and players a brief breath of fresh air during the season.
