Here is a section of the press release:

Michigan to Face Notre Dame in Primetime, Honor Tom Harmon as Michigan Football Legend

Ann Arbor, Mich. – The University of Michigan football team will face the University of Notre Dame in a nationally-televised primetime game at Michigan Stadium, it was announced Tuesday (Dec. 11) in a joint announcement with ESPN. The athletic department will honor 1940 Heisman Trophy winner Tom Harmon, installing him as a Michigan Football Legend during a pre-game ceremony.

…

“Our athletic department is looking forward to recreating the night game magic from two years ago,” said Dave Brandon, the Donald R. Shepherd Director of Athletics. “We have more in store for this game than the initial night game and will work hard to create many WOW moments. One of those magical moments will be the honoring of Tom Harmon. He is one of the greatest athletes in school history and we are excited to celebrate all that he accomplished at Michigan. Having Tom’s ‘Old 98’ back on the field will be special. This will be a memorable evening for everyone at Michigan Stadium or watching the game on TV. This will be the final match-up with Notre Dame at the Big House for the foreseeable future.”

Rumor is they will retroactively change Denard's number to 98.

Tom Harmon was probably the greatest Michigan player ever. His 1940 game against OSU was probably the best Wolverine performance in the rivalry ever. Yet I always see the same few photos of him, and I feel like his stature is referenced without much detail. I've read his biography chronicling his WWII adventures, and I've watched his movie. But I wish that UM would put together a better collection of Tom Harmon materials, and especially photos. I'm getting tired of the same bits of info and same few photos. There must be more out there.

New Orleans-based Wolverine fan.

Why give Notre Dame the luxury of being our first two night games? They treated us like crap by dropping future games. Why give them the pleasure?

 

I know....I know.... it will have high ratings. I am just tired of ND playing every road game at night.
