The power of the bye week

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – We mentioned it yesterday on ABC 36 News, the EKU football program has won 13 straight games coming off a bye week.

The Colonels are coming off an open week as they play host to Austin Peay this Saturday.

The Governors lost to Vanderbilt 47-7 last weekend.

The one down side, Peay has always played Eastern hard since Dean Hood arrived.  Usually, that is.

EKU beat the Governors 31-0 after a bye week in 2014.

So how’s coach feeling with that bye week history in effect?

Hear from Hood in the video.
