Next Years Schedule
I know we still have our bowl game, but was looking at next years schedule for the potential night game. Brandon did say he wanted one a year.
To me the only reasonable option is October 20! What a great atmosphere to end the spartie streak at 4.
Any other options?

It actually is April 14, although the time is TBD.

I'm pretty sure that it is 14 April, because Michigan wants to set the record for lacrosse attendance, and it is an easy trick to add to the attendance numbers by having a doubleheader with the spring football game.

I agree with DB here. You shouldn't have a night game just for the sake of having a night game. Sparty would make the most sense. After reading the Detroit News article I don't think he's ruled that out, however, they will have to look at it from every angle and in different ways than they did with ND because it's an instate rivalry that's turned nasty as of late. I would love to see UTL II vs. sparty but I am not going to get my hopes up.

For once, I agree with David Brandon. There is no way Sparty fans can be trusted not to turn Ann Arbor into a criminal cesspool if the MSU game is played at night. Besides, the entire square mile around the stadium would reek of stale beer and urine for weeks.

Let's start 1-0 and go from there.

How amazing would it be for my first Michigan game experience to be the MSU (night) game ON MY BIRTHDAY! It makes my f'in head spin thinking about it. I love every one of you and...
we BEAT OHIO!

In 3 years the Big Ten and the SEC aren't going to be that different.
I'll take Hoke, Meyer, Mullin, Pelini, Bielema, Dantonio, and Ferentz over Saban, Miles, Petrino, Chizik, Muschamp, Richt, OBC, and Sherman
Besdes Saban and Miles, the others aren't much different than Hoke. Sure Spurrier won, but hasn't done so in a long time. Chizik won a national title, but we all know how that happened. Big Ten Football is on the verge of doing what Big Ten basketball did a few years ago when almost every team went out and hired a great coach.

A lot of cheaters on the SEC side of the argument. Tressel would fit in well over there. Yankee ass senator.

...would welcome that cat with open arms. He's one of them for all the right reasons.

Brandon has made it clear that State will never be a night game.

He also made it clear that the UTL uniforms were going to be a one-time thing as well. A month later, and we had the road version of the same. Forgive me for not trusting David Brandon to stick to his word with regards to certain aspects of the program.
