Michigan/ND under the lights on BTN right now

Submitted by KingsWolverine on
Count me in, I'll happily watch this game again. Or should I just tune in at the 4th quarter?

Cause I paused and downshifted to the other tuner and now I'm FF Commercials and somehow it made the 1st 2 3/4 QT's bearable.

Man, if this game doesn't indicate the level of coaching we have, I don't know what would.

Also, that Stadium and our school colors has such a pageantry look to it, just effing magical!!!

if you see the Bat Man Wolverine fan, then I am right behind him. Has anyone else every seen the kid who is all Bat Manned out he is pretty much a folk hero I think? He beats that cowbell thing painted maize and blue all game long starting chants.

This game gets better and better with time.

This may be the 2nd or 3rd biggest Michigan win in the last 50 years.  1969 is first.  You could make a case for '97 Rose Bowl or '97 OSU as second.

UTL had it all:  First night game, Game Day, electric atmosphere, Hoke's national coming out party, big win over ND, insane exciting finish.  

I love this video, it makes me feel all tingly.  I've watched it over and over.  Fantastic field-level game-speed action shots of the game (and Nikki Noto as a bonus).

Is this game being presented with limited commercial interruptions? They just went the entire break between the 3rd and 4th quarters without going to commercial.  What is this Schindler's list?

As I told my co-workers, when Roundtree scored I lifted our dog (a pug) high in the air and gave him a big fat kiss on the lips. What a memorable moment.

I wouldn't trade having been there for anything (obvs), but it's interesting to see the crowd shots from all over the Stadium and everything else I couldn't see from my little corner.

Was in the 3rd row with a cast on my foot and crutches. Dehydrated myself all day just so I could hold my piss from 6:30 pm until midnight. So worth it

Play of the game:  Not the Denard jump balls, but the ball slipping out of Rees hand at the 2 yard line.   They score there and its Lights Out.

Denard doesn't find 'Tree in the end zone and this is a devastating loss. Given all the hype surrounding the game, it would have gotten the Hoke era off to a decidedly different start.

Jeremy Gallon damn near falls down from his forward momentum on that next-to-last catch. He has to lunge forward just a bit, stumbles slightly, and magically regains his balance. He's so freaking wide open the slight stumble STILL doesn't allow the defenders to close in on him very fast. So incredibly clutch.

took a shit in December and I lost the recording of this game and was so pissed off, I'm really glad i get a shorter version of it at least. But why did they not show us our 1st TD?

Man you could see how we would eventually improve throughout the season, just a lovely thing!

Got to the tailgate on berkley a block away at 8am. First ones there as usual. 11 hrs of great food, music, drinks, we witnessed something that solely speaks to why i love that school. Emotional roller coaster, left with a feeling of complete satisfaction. The awesomeness that it was will take a hell of alot to beat! Ill gladly relive that moment in time anyday.

He does stumble a bit like I recalled, but he actually had a d-back right in his face and he quickly recovered and changed course. Even better. 

Gary Gray is terrible. If this was Cuban baseball he would be a dead man.

My tickets where on the same side of the inzone where Roundtree caught the winning TD. I will never forget that ever, and I will speak of this Michigan legendary night to my grandkids. I will say 'your grandpa was there and it was the most exciting game I was ever apart of'. We all were truely the best 12th man EVER that night.
