Regular game week schedule begins

Is it customary or peculiar NOT to have practices on both aug 29 and 31 the week before opening game?

I thought game time in Madison was 6:30pm.

Making matters more confused, the niuhuskies website and schedule sez 6pm CT
Traditionally, monday is a "day off" for the players, so there is no practice, just weights and film.
yes but why both days without practice?

Protecting fresh legs for game prep week?
Im sure its to keep everyone fresh, but more than that I think its to get everbody into a "normal" game week mindset.
