Game Time For MSU Game?

Submitted by ska4punkkid on

Hey all - I know the time for the MSU game has not been released yet but was wondering if anyone knows when we will find out?

Or, does anyone have any insider info about the game time (umbig11?)

I think I've heard people on the board speculating that it might be a night game?

I'm itching to make travel plans and with 4 kids that need to be babysat I need to start sucking up to a family member well in advance.

Also - I'm planning on making a crying jordan sparty sign. Or should I do something else? Maybe make a huge sign out of this...

I've heard rumblings that it will be a 3:30 game with a solar eclipse happening as we score the 3rd touchdown of the 1st quarter, to put us up 20-0.. So yes, it will end up being a night game litterally ushering in the new era of Michigan Football supremacy over stae

If it's a night game, which many are saying it will be, it must be announced no later than September 25th, and likely will be announced on that day. If it's any other kickoff timeframe, it must be announced no later than October 1st.

Night games, as part of the new Big Ten TV deals, cannot be announced any later than 12 days before the game. All other kickoff times may be announced as late as 6 days before the game. ESPN and Fox have many empty night game windows on October 7th. I'd be shocked if we didn't get selected for one of them.

Look at the shit show surrounding MSU Football, and the fact they won't be that good this year. The networks aren't wasting a primetime slot on a game that could get ugly, and also, if Larry Nassar goes to trial this fall as expected, there's more negative press surrounding Staee. The perfect opportunity for Michigan vs Michigan State to have been a night game was 2015, two competitive teams, 5-0 vs 4-1, it had the ingredients, but being Harbaugh's first year, I understand why it wasn't.

As someone else already pointed out, that date has open slots for night games. My guess would be 8 on Fox that night but it is possible it would be ESPN.
