Bye week after a win is like gas station bbq sandwiches. It looks really good, you think it can turn your season around, but in reality it gives you false hope and then makes you hug a toilet for three hours.

We are having vastly different bye week experiences, my friend.
That's a fair statement haha
Bye Week is a friggin' can of tomato soup!
Bye week ain't played nobody
PAWL
on the flip side Bye Week plays everyone and has never won even once
"HE'S SPINNING THE BALL ON HIS FINGER! JUST TAKE IT!"
Oh that is not true, UVa gets their ass whipped by BYE every year
Bye week things all LIV golfers should get invites to all 4 majors every year.
Bye week thinks there is not enough coverage of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce and that this should be the major focus of TKP site.

I know some folks will vigorously disagree, but I think we can handle Bye Week.
Nobody will disagree at all.
Someone will probably disagree and blame Whit for scheduling bye week every year.
They say Bye Week is a cupcake.
Well in the fans' defense, scheduling bye week IS just like scheduling ODU or Liberty.
If you don't lose, you gain absolutely nothing, if you lose it's the end of the world.
Can't even get them at home, no less
And if it is, it's a nooner.
Bye week runs the ball with less than 40 seconds left when the opponent has no time outs
Bye week fumbles and lets the other team drive down the field for the game-winning score in less than 30 seconds.
Guys, don't be ridiculous. Nobody is THAT stupid.
And even if they were, nobody is stupid enough to let that happen to themselves
twicethriceFool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, I should just quit
Bye Week enthusiastically encourages usage of "pitch count" to describe a football player returning from injury who is on limited snaps to ramp up to full speed
Bye Week thinks that Miami should have kneeled to melt the shot clock.
Bye week goes off as -3000 vs. VT in penalties this week.
Bye week drops a can of beer on the ground and doesn't mention it to anyone when putting it back in the fridge so when the next person grabs a beer it foamspodes on them
Bye week declared its own official theme song
Bye week likes boy bands.
Bye week is usually responsible for me having to go to some friggin fall festival craft fair shit.
(although it's better than having to do it on a game day)
Ha! The joke is on bye week this year because my wife is out of town this weekend. I don't have to go pick pumpkins or make wreaths or some shit, I can just watch college football with zero anxiety and drink beer like God intended.
It's like being 25 all over again except I'm going to feel a lot worse Sunday morning than I did back then.
Bye week thinks Prime is correct in that giving up a 29 point lead to a team that lost to Sacramento St. is a player effort issue and has nothing to do with coaching
Never forget, we once lost bye week.
Bye week is so good, it is in every conference even after expansion
Bye week tries to convince influencers it is pronounced "Bae".
Didn't we used to always love the bye weeks?
Bye week is the worst type of Bye. Tournament Byes are the best kind.
I concur. My Braves fall victim to this annually...
Which part do you concur with? I'm in violent disagreement about Tournament Byes being the best kind, when it comes to baseball.
Your braves fall victim to not being able to hit a fucking baseball in play in october.... since 1992. Google it.
I don't need to Google what I come to expect every late September...
I can't be mad at BYE this year. Previous seasons it's a week to stew in my anxiety over the team. This year? Just more time to take in the wake GIFtory and get psyched for how thoroughly we're going to pound the fighting tropicanas next Thursday.
I won't call the Syracuse game a pivotal one, but maybe, sort of one.
If we lose and are 3-5, I can still see us getting to 5-7, which I'll be happy with in terms of forward progress, especially after starting 1-3. But not much hope of a bowl game. Maybe 20-25% chance. If we win and get to 4-4, think we have at least a pretty good chance of getting to 6-6 or even 7-5. Win a low-level bowl and that is a heck of a turn-around in 1 season from 3-8 to 7-6 or 8-5. Do think Syracuse will set the stage for has the team shown good progress or have they really made a big leap. Pry and company need to have the team focused, fired up and ready to play for 4 quarters.
Anticipating my birthday Thursday Night game like years of old.
I think the crowd will be raucous after stewing on a win for 10ish days. If we can get an early score or turnover, I anticipate a fun evening.
Birthday=win.
God, what I wouldn't give right now for a video of our high school production of Fiddler on the Roof, starring Bret Baier as Tevye Milkman. He was damn good.
May you have a very happy birthday that evening.
Bye Week is actually rooting for the Astros
Boooo bye week
Bye Week didn't align with of either of the 2 fall weddings I had to attend this year
Bye Week can't read a calendar good
I just glanced over at opponents schedules and realized that 1-5 LOLUVA who just lost against the Bye still has the hardest part of their schedule remaining...
They still have UNC, Miami, GT, Louisville, Duke, and VT (us) remaining. According to ESPN their best chance at a win is their 33% chance against GT.
UVA really gonna go 1-11 this year. If we somehow manage to make a bowl all will be right with the world
Yeah that W&M loss makes me sad. It would be so beautiful to be on the upswing while LOLUVa goes unwinfeated would bring so much joy to my life. 1-11 is good, too.
So, Zima sales will be at an all time low
I want to kick them when they're down so hard it makes them develop an Arbor Mist habit.
thank you for clarifying that VT is us
Not to be confused with Vermont.
that's actually UVM, which pretty much literally stands for University of VerMont
That is objectively stupid.
The initials UVM stand for the Latin words Universitas Viridis Montis, or University of the Green Mountains.
yeah and where does the name "Vermont" come from -- it was originally described as Green Mountains before the name Vermont came to be widely used, french called it Verd Mont, etc etc... hence UVM = University of VerMont
Agree, just adding some more to it. Wasn't arguing what you said.
I had thought about just saying US but worried that somebody would think I was thinking of the United States University in San Diego or something.
Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means 'a whale's vagina'.
Bye week means we won't win 'Time of Possession" this week.
Au contraire- I see it as we will win TOP 60 min to zero!
Bye week thinks we should only get one film review from French between each game
Bye week wants to change it's name to Bye-Bye so it can be like what happens when Lane and Tuten get the ball!
BYE Week gets annoyed when recruits call it "BYE Week University" instead of its actual name: "BYE Polyweekic Institute and State University"
Or By Tech? /s
Bah Tech
Bah Tech University
BYE week hopes to hire Joey Freshwater by telling him that all their co-eds are BYE.
BYE was 4-2 against Justin Fuente.
Bye week is incorrectly named. It should be 'open week.' A 'bye' is when you skip a round in a tournament. This is different.
Credit to Andy Bitter who credited Ralph Russo for this fact.
Yeah but then people might think we are playing Open University! Pretty sure we'd beat them /s
(There is one called that https://www.open.ac.uk/ as ell as many 'Open University of (name of city/country)')
Bye week hates All Maroon Everything.
Bye week is just an egregious delay of game penalty that the ACC refs missed.
The previous Bye Week is under review.
Jeez, another 4 minute commercial break.
Bye week never gets called for targeting, even when it's obvious.
I'm putting my money on Bye State.
Bye Week enjoys spending Saturday showing off his mullet while taking up six parking spaces tailgating in his squat truck in the Chic-fil-A parking lot.
This feels tailor made for me to hate
Bye Week enjoys spending Saturday showing off his mullet while taking up six parking spaces tailgating in his squat truck in the
Chic-fil-ABojangles parking lot.FTFY
I was just trying to think of which parking lot around town is the hardest to find a place to park. It would actually be Dairy'O, but opted for one people have heard of.
I was just thinking of all the Bojangles tailgating commercials we see on Saturdays. (it's all good)
Does the Spurtle shop have parking available? Asking for a friend.
define "available".
