If you had to choose to attend one game this season:
So the title is pretty self explanatory, if you had to choose one Michigan Football game to attend this season, which game would you choose? I'm looking to attend one game, and I'm down to Indiana, AT Michigan State, or AT Ohio State. For reference I've been to several Michigan football games, but never in the Big House. Answers need not be those three games.
Sorry if this clogs up the board, just looking for some expert advice.

National Championship game, obviously
August 10th, 2016 at 5:00 PM ^
And living in Tampa, that's really my only chance this year.
August 11th, 2016 at 9:11 AM ^
I see where I can reserve the option to buy them when they come on sale, but I don't see where I can actually buy tickets right now.
August 11th, 2016 at 9:23 AM ^
I think you have to wait a few months. Although I am curious where you reserve the option?
August 10th, 2016 at 4:35 PM ^
If you have the cash, it's always The Game. Always.
August 10th, 2016 at 4:39 PM ^

I am on a mission to watch Michigan play in every BIG TEN stadium. I am not looking forward to that one. I wish I could go this year!
August 11th, 2016 at 2:00 AM ^
That rotunda is a bit much.
Architecturally impressive, of course. But feels like visiting some humongous orthodox church in a hostile country somewhere. A little dour for a sporting venue. Football-themed stained glass. Religion can get a little tacky ...

August 10th, 2016 at 4:38 PM ^
but I play college football at the Division 3 level, and unfortunately most Saturday's are a little booked. Luckily our bye week comes the week of Michigan State.
August 10th, 2016 at 5:02 PM ^
Well, that sounds like your answer.
August 10th, 2016 at 5:33 PM ^
but our season ends the 12th of November, so thats enough time for Indiana and AT Ohio State. So if I really wanted to do it in season, it would have to be Sparty.
August 10th, 2016 at 6:55 PM ^
Ah, fair. I still say OSU or MSU. Indiana will be fun, but those are way more compelling games. I'd probably pick MSU still, but you can't go wrong with either one.
August 10th, 2016 at 11:23 PM ^
Personally I'd rather go to the shoe than the east landfill trash tornado. Never been to the shoe but got assaulted in the first quarter by a white trash sparty fan in the landfill.
August 10th, 2016 at 11:39 PM ^
The shoe is the only stadium in the conference I never dared take a date to. There have been close calls; one time a shoving match between my bud and a drunken OSUter but broke up just as quickly by myself and other drunken OSUters. I don't know if I have the strength to get involved in one of those again but if you do go there, be on guard. MSU fans require not much more than a multi syllable word to get them thinking long enough to plan and execute your escapse.
August 10th, 2016 at 4:44 PM ^
If there is anything I have learned from sports...there is no such thing as a sure thing.
August 10th, 2016 at 4:50 PM ^
I'm to scarred to take any team lightly so I'm just focused on that game and that game only right now.
I'm happy we'll have film on them since they play a week before we play them.
August 10th, 2016 at 5:01 PM ^
Is this /s?
August 10th, 2016 at 5:27 PM ^
The last time I let my guard down was Akron.
Never again.

Big games, you know what you're gonna get as far as schemes go.
I was seriously concerned about the UNLV game last year. I read the previews intensely so Ace and Brian can comfort me and put my mind at ease by telling me a team is bad and should feel bad.

We are a 42 point favorite, playing at home, against a team with more miles in the air than Santa on Christmas eve.
Lay the points - collect the money.

that Coach is never gonna put you into a game, even a blow-out, right?
August 10th, 2016 at 5:46 PM ^
how did you practice?
August 10th, 2016 at 5:47 PM ^
Oh Christ WD, you're not getting subbed in the game lol. It's ok, you can look ahead. Won't affect the team performance at all.
August 10th, 2016 at 7:44 PM ^
August 10th, 2016 at 4:37 PM ^
Probably Ohio State followed by Michigan State.
If you've never seen a game in the Big House, Wisconsin probably nudges Penn State for best home game, IMO.

if you haven't been the Big House, the two best games there this year are PSU or Wisconsin and the Wisconsin game should be the tougher of the two. The anticipation before a big game makes pre-game activities more fun and obviously the game a lot more exciting. I would not recommend Hawaii or IU.
Another downside (or upside depending on your preference) to the IU game is it's likely to be colder/worse weather than PSU and Wisconsin.
A first game in the Big House would be a lot more fun than a game at MSU or OSU, IMO.
August 10th, 2016 at 5:47 PM ^
PSU simply to delight in the destruction of Franklin and everything that school stands for.
August 10th, 2016 at 4:37 PM ^
Go to OSU and wear maize. Would love to see the shoe/toiletseat with our colors throughout, like they unfortunately do to the Big House when The Game is in Ann Arbor.

never step foot in their stadium? They're selling their tickets too. We just aren't buying them.
August 10th, 2016 at 7:08 PM ^
August 11th, 2016 at 10:29 AM ^
where are your facts about ohio people selling their tickets ? You are wrong. I know ohio fans personally and they will tell you straight up the their fans do not sell their Michigan game tickets.
It is pathetic what too many Michigan fans do with their osu tickets ... just being a whore for the money. Pathetic. These tickets are season holder tickets - WTF if you buy season tickets why sell the ohio game ... cuz you can get $400 per ticket ? Whore.
I'm lucky enough to have season tickets ... and fuck ohio fans, they would never get my tickets.
Go Blue!
August 10th, 2016 at 4:39 PM ^
Rose Bowl.
August 10th, 2016 at 4:40 PM ^
the Peach Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl
August 10th, 2016 at 5:05 PM ^
I live in ATL and go to school in FLorida, so I kinda wann just buy tix to the Peach and National Championship ahead of time........
August 10th, 2016 at 4:39 PM ^
Always attend OSU. In fact I've attended 7 games agains the bucknuts and were 6-1. Go Blue!!!!
August 10th, 2016 at 4:44 PM ^
its your fuckin fault we haven't beaten them much....
All kidding aside, I have a very real inferiority complex right now with Ohio State, seeing as how in my lifetime they're 14-6 against Michigan, and 13-2 since I started watching football.
August 10th, 2016 at 4:47 PM ^
PLEASE RESUME ATTENDING THIS GAME ANNUALLY. KTHXBYE
