OMFG my satellite signal just went out. I have a three year old, so I can't leave. My wife convinced me to go to DirecTV. Panic.
September 1st, 2012 at 7:51 PM ^
Ouch. What did you do to anger the football gods?
September 1st, 2012 at 8:01 PM ^
Drank Bud Light Lime last night? I figured it was appropriate during the Spartan game though... I may have to chug my first Chimay tonight to appease them.
EDIT: Nobody panic. My signal is back. I'm sure you were all very worried.

We have nothing to lose..play hard play fast..Go Blue !!
September 1st, 2012 at 6:51 PM ^
I'm always incredibly nervous for every opener, but this year it's justified. Let's go BLUE!
September 1st, 2012 at 7:10 PM ^
I actually feel the opposite. There is no pressure on us to win this game. By all logical thought, Alabama should win. Michigan should be able to play loose and put it all out there. I don't expect to win, but I think this game is going to be a lot of fun and hopefully we pull off the shocker. If not, there isn't much shame in losing to the reigning champs in what is essentially a road game. I'm more excited than anything else.

Lax probably isn't the right word. I've been amped since Monday. But it's more of a positive buzz. Last year against OSU it was a really nervous energy because it was a game we should win and it meant so much. This one just feels like a great opportunity and I'm excited as hell.

Play hard, play fast, play tough and play smart guys!!!
GO BLUE!!!

I'm staying away from bars for Michigan games for a while. I do and say too many inappropriate things during Michigan games at bars. Maybe I'll hit them up after the game when Michigan wins. HAVE FUN AND LET'S GO BLUE!

Michigan tradionally plays very well in opening games. LET'S GO BLUE!
BEAT 'BAMA

Unlike our Big Ten counterparts, I'm proud we had the balls to open with what might be the toughest game out there.
Go Blue!

does anybody know of any liveblog for the game?
September 1st, 2012 at 7:03 PM ^
@mgoblog/mgogameday appears to be up.
is #mgogameday the correct hashtag?
September 1st, 2012 at 7:08 PM ^
are you saying its a twitter page or is it a website to go to.
September 1st, 2012 at 7:14 PM ^
Brian created a twitter list that has the feed of @mgoblog, @justcoverblog, @mattrhinton, @Mvictors, @bry_mac (BiSB), @grantwahl, @hooverstreet, @aceanbender, and others...
I thought the idea originally was that it would be moderated and tweets would be retweeted when there was a special hastag used, but it looks like right now it's just the feed of guys on the list. I haven't heard anything about it since the original post when brian was talking alternatives to the liveblog.

To the Big House to watch the game with my fellow Michigan students. I hope the atmosphere is great and the attendance is better. Just being in the Big House again will be worth it but I want to see that place rocking if we start rolling the Tide.

Let our D-line be better than I think it is.
September 1st, 2012 at 7:16 PM ^
Expectations are low, but hopes are high! I just have a feeling about tonight, anyone else?
-That feeling could be gas; I don't know. I'm nowhere near drunk yet, so that's not it. Maybe I'm just so damn happy to see some Michigan F-ing FOOTBAWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
