Edit: Original poster snuck the link in on me while I was posting this. My bad.

Knew I'd be bitched at for not having a link as soon as I submitted it. My bad.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:17 AM ^
No worries.
September 27th, 2010 at 12:53 PM ^
It can't end here! I NEED to know whose bad it really is!
September 27th, 2010 at 11:15 AM ^
Spank Sparty on National T.V.
Go Blue!
September 27th, 2010 at 11:15 AM ^
we will be bowl elgible around 6:30ish
September 27th, 2010 at 11:19 AM ^
When we get the ground game going early that clock will run.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:20 AM ^
Officially, but I believe we will be bowl eligible by about 4:15 or 4:30.
September 27th, 2010 at 1:54 PM ^
...over 100 yards rushing by then, but I don't think the game will be over within an hour. I'll admit UM is a lot better on offense than I (or any State fan) expected, but you'll have your hands full as well.
September 27th, 2010 at 4:18 PM ^
Not as much as the Ann Arbor police department.
Or Charlie Weis at a Sunday buffet.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:19 AM ^
It is my only game that I get to go to this year unless of course we make it to a Florida bowl.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:19 AM ^
September 27th, 2010 at 11:24 AM ^
are not mutually exclusive
September 27th, 2010 at 11:23 AM ^
I am flying up from Tampa and this will be my first game since 2002. Looking foward to being able to get in 3 extra hours of tailgating.
GO BLUE!
September 27th, 2010 at 11:25 AM ^
Thank God this is on national TV. It was pretty lame that the UM-MSU game was on the BTN last year.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:36 AM ^
How will I know what to use to make queso??????
September 27th, 2010 at 11:32 AM ^
flying my son in from Atlanta for the weekend, driving over from Toronto, meeting my cousin & wife from Chicago whose daughter is a freshman this year. should be a great family tailgate!
GO BLUE

Michigan has only had Umass so far, and would only have 1 BTN game in the first 6.
I thought that all teams needed 4 BTN games, but that may not be true anymore. In any case, I would assume that Illinois and Purdue are headed for the BTN.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:44 AM ^
I think it is an minimum 3 games on the BTN per team per year.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:50 AM ^
be the minimum of 3.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:54 AM ^
Look for Illinois and Purdue to be prime BTN candidates. Not sure how the pecking order goes (despite the numerous threads with often-conflicting information), but PSU and osu are definitely WWL fodder. Wisco likely is, too, especially if UM and UW keep up their winning ways. Iowa is already scheduled to be on ABC at 330pm.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:47 AM ^
of 2 myself.
Once Big Ten play ramps up, there are a few weeks with 2 ABC games, one at 3:30 and one at 8pm, plus ESPN and ESPN2 show a Big Ten game.
September 27th, 2010 at 12:16 PM ^
I agree. I remember the minimum when Big Ten Network launched was one guaranteed out of conference game, and one conference game on BTN. I guess something could have changed since then.
September 27th, 2010 at 11:41 AM ^
I know this is a bit early, but can someone please start posting daily weather updates for that game? /s
September 27th, 2010 at 11:51 AM ^
they say Sunny with a high of 59. This is from NOAA.
By past weeks trends it should be downgraded to mostly cloudy and 42 by the weekend. ;)
September 27th, 2010 at 11:50 AM ^
to work the afternoon shift on Sunday. Woot for actually getting to tailgate!
September 27th, 2010 at 11:52 AM ^
Wife's grandmother's 90th birthday party that evening. I'm sure we'll be out of the house before the end of the game, even with a 2:30 start in Chicago. I guess that's why God invented radio, Tivo, and the internet.
September 27th, 2010 at 12:08 PM ^
I'm so pumped for this game, I might jump half as high as Denard in that picture.
September 27th, 2010 at 12:11 PM ^
I kind of assumed this would be the case given the rest of the conference slate that weekend, but it does mean I don't get to watch the game as I will probably be tailgating for the USA soccer match. Oh well.
September 27th, 2010 at 12:41 PM ^
Wondering if Game Day crew will be in attendance
September 27th, 2010 at 1:08 PM ^
Highly doubtful considering the abundance of good games that weekend and the relative unknowns regarding how legitimate both Michigan and Michigan State are.
September 27th, 2010 at 12:47 PM ^
Is in serious jeaopardy for the State game. It's probably best we get past Indiana, before predicting the attendance for the State game though
September 27th, 2010 at 12:52 PM ^
I'll be flying in at 6am that morning to see the game. It'll give me some time to rest up before tailgating, cheering on the team and celebrating a Michigan win!
September 27th, 2010 at 2:05 PM ^
Rest up? You should be going straight from the airport to the golf course.
September 27th, 2010 at 1:30 PM ^
If this game was in EL, I would be terrifed about the town going up in flames by the time the game rolled around.
This could very well be the game of the day just because the rivalry tends to keep these games close. Hopefully Dantonio is back for the game, because beating MSU will be even sweater if he is there to witness it.
September 27th, 2010 at 1:50 PM ^
Go back to class. Or, based on your first comment... the old played bit that it is, try and get some class.
Here's to Coach D making it back to roam the sidelines at the Big House... and another great game between UM-MSU.
September 27th, 2010 at 2:04 PM ^
I'm not really sure how him hoping Dantonio is on the sidelines indicates a lack of class. Or how his misspelling of "sweeter" indicates anything other than a transposed letter.
September 27th, 2010 at 4:22 PM ^
You should be less terrified now considering Ann Arbor has officially banned couches on people's porches.

I have a wedding at 6 that night. Was praying (selfishly) for the noon game, but I guess this is why God invented smart phones....
September 27th, 2010 at 2:05 PM ^
Get your priorities straight.
September 27th, 2010 at 5:33 PM ^
with you on the noon start... i have to work at the stadium that day, but i have a bachelor party that night... a noon start would have been perfect... get home around 7, nap, go out... now its going to be get done at the stadium around 9pm and then have to go straight to where ever the party is at... this wouldn't be a big problem if i hadn't been running my ass for 12 hours... hopefully the best man keeps the party in the general area of AA...
September 27th, 2010 at 1:51 PM ^
3:30 is always the perfect kick off time; I am so pumped for this one
September 27th, 2010 at 5:40 PM ^
I'm driving down Friday from Marquette for the game, so good thing it's a late start so I can get some sleep.
When are the permanent lights going in?
September 27th, 2010 at 5:42 PM ^
If we beat Indiana, this game will be crazy. If MSU beats Wisconsin, it will be EPIC.
