What happened? We play every week until the week before the Iowa game. As we all know, the bye weeks sure give bumps & bruises a chance to heal.

We don't always get two bye weeks, some years we only get one. It usually has to do with when the season starts-the last two years it started in August, but this year it doesn't start until September 5. From 2009-2012 we only had one bye week too, although it was earlier in the season. But in 2006 and 2007 the schedule was exactly like it is this year-one bye week before the last game.

They also have been known to derail momentum. Depth and training will negate the need for multiple byes.
 
I noticed this too. I like bye weeks for a number of reasons, several personal for me. But I was surprised there were none til after the end of the season. I think bye weeks are good for a team to allow some needed rest. JMO.
