Easy way to import UM football schedule into Google calendar?

Submitted by Dan Man on

I thought this could be a time saver for many people here.  Anybody know an easy way to import the football schedule into a Google calendar (or, for others, any other type of e-calendar) and save me the 5-10 minutes doing it manually?

Go to Google Calendar.  On the left side, click the down arrow to the right of Other Calendars.  Browse interesting calendars.  Sports tab.  NCAA.  Michigan.  That should get it done.

Perfect, thanks!  For some reason it's not showing up on my phone, but perhaps that is beyond the scope of this thread.

[Edit - I discerned that you need to also hit the "synch" check box next to the Michigan football calendar.  Now it's on my phone.  Also, I assume that once the TBA times are determined, they will automatically show up in my calendar.  Ahh, technology...]

Except I don't like how it has the TBD games as 12-3pm on the google one. I've been caught thinking that was the final time, schedule something, and then the game gets moved to 3:30. The mgoblue calendar has the TBD ones as TBD. You have to go check for updates yourself though.

Like I mentioned the times are updated automatically once they are officially announced so it's never been an issue for me. I actually use the Google sports calendars for all my favorite teams, it's been great. Personal preference I suppose though, use whatever suits you.

I know they are updated after they are announced. I'm talking about before they are actually announced. The TBD games should not be listed as noon games before they are announced. Have them as all day events or something else. It's incorrect info having it at noon when they are TBD. 

Don't get me wrong, I still use it too. It's just an annoyance.
