Michigan alwayus plays their November home games at noon. They've been doing it since the 80s when a game (can't remember which is was) ended and it was dark & freezing out. Bo decalred there would never be another home game played past Noon.

i work at the stadium and we didn't even know what time this game was going to be at... it might have been assumed that it would be at noon but nothing was set in stone... either way i have to get up at 3:30am next saturday that is only draw back of noon games and working at the stadium...

There was a thread about it last Monday, but I think it was a relatively active day on the boards, so the thread was likely buried somewhat quickly. This is a good reminder for planning purposes. 

The only game we don't know is Iowa then, I think. I want to say that we had seven or eight noon kicks last year, if memory serves. This year, it will be at most four and they will all have fallen in November. I don't remember that ever happening.

I made a post about it last Monday morning when it was released. However, TV channel was just announced this morning. Typically announce two weeks ahead on Monday mornings unless ESPN uses one of their 6 day clauses.

She seems a lot more knowledgeable and certainly does a better job than ol' Pammy, however I find her voice to be pretty monotone and dry.  Still, she's not Pam so that's a win.

BTW, I tried to post a reply three different times on the Droid app but it failed each time.  In fact, I recall now that it's been this way for a while now.  Anyone else having this problem?
