Sugar Bowl Open Thread - Pre-Game Warmup
Hopefully, no one is upset that I put this up way too early, but I can’t wait for 8:30 PM. Obviously, I can barely wait for 6:30 PM either, but as I am already preparing for this evening, my hope is that there is some pre-game discussion as well.
Those of us stuck at work or at home for this one will hopefully appreciate the chance to chat a little bit now and then throughout the game. Those of you in New Orleans...what are you doing in the open threads? Get out there and support the Wolverines!
This is it, fellow Wolverines.
This is your Allstate Sugar Bowl Open Thread - Pre-Game Warm-Up. Actual game thread to start hopefully in the next 45 minutes or so.
8:30 PM on ESPN. Pre-game starts at 8 PM, live from the Superdome in New Orleans. Many thanks to our fellow MGoBloggers who are live at the scene for their updates.
This is the only game tonight, as it should be. Hopefully, it’s an awesome one…for us.
GO BLUE!

RVB's Facebook Status before the game. It's awesome
"I'll wear the winged helmet for the last time tonight. Me and my teammates have been called losers, unathletic, disappointments, incapable, and embarrassments amongst other things over the past 3 years. Tonight that changes. Tonight, we will be given the opportunity to be called "champions". And those who stay...will be"

You wait all spring and summer for the 2011 season to begin and now we have the last game of the season, the last game for team 132. Win or lose, these kids have had a great season and the team has far exceeded what 99% of us expected of them.
To think about where the seniors have come in 4 years, it makes me emotional. I want to see this team play 4 strong quarters tonite. Go Blue.

the Nelly thing, as Switchfoot was just doing the music. Big improvement in my book.

Thank god. Nelly was making me resent college football...which is...just awful.

I'm so excited for the game. It's all I've been thinking about for 5 weeks and I'm so not looking forward to tomorrow when I have to wait 8 months for Michigan football.
