Michigan will take on South Dakota State at 7:15 pm EST on Thursday, March 21. The VCU-Akron game will follow ours.
EDIT: It will be televised on CBS, and Verne Lundquist and Bill Raftery will be on the call.
EDIT #2: There's a full schedule with times, announcers, and TV listings HERE if anyone wants it.
Thank God. Was terrified it
I'll never forget
the Tennessee game a few years back. I was in biology class and trying to watch it using the CBS app on my phone, and my teacher caught me using it. He asked me what I was doing, and I said I was watching a NCAA Tournament game. He asked who was playing, and when I said Michigan he smiled and said "Keep watching and give me updates. I bet you didn't know I went to Michigan did you?" Needless to say, we were both pumped about the 30 point win!
Go Blue. Greetings from SEC country.
Ah, the high fever excuse I
Ah, the high fever excuse I used for calling in. Little did they know it was March Madness fever.

Sorry in to lazy to look this
Sorry in to lazy to look this up, but how many games would we play in Auburn Hills should we happen to get our shit together?
No worries oh lazy one
we would play 2 games and winning them would get us to the sweet 16
Thank you, and lazy question
Thank you, and lazy question number 2, are there any time schedules available for the 3rd round and beyond yet? Hoping for another late(er) game on Saturday.
Edit: I should prob knock on wood with the way this team has been playing.
During Biology Class?
I was doing my graduate work, but we were on spring break that week. Maybe my spring break in grad school was a little early or a little late, because I remember skipping classes to watch the first round of the tournament when I was an undergrad and all the guys watching it together. Of course I took 8 years between undergrad and grad school, so my memory may be wrong, lol.
Still, the Stu Douglas dunk is probably my favorite memory of Michigan Basketball in the last decade. That moment, was when I felt we were finally back.

That's awesome!
What do you say when you're not being sarcastic and a total douche by saying "cool story, bro?" Whatever that meme is, that's what I'd like to say here.
That's pretty damn awesome, it's why I love this country...even our teachers have priorities in order.
Damn...and what a great game too!

I'm on Pacific Time, so
I'm on Pacific Time, so unfortunately it is during my work time. Anyone know if you can watch these games afterwards on replay like you can on BTN2go or WatchEspn? I don't have a DVR (or VCR), and I was unable to find any info on the NCAA/CBS website. Really don't want to miss any of the game.
Find local pawn shop for a
Find local pawn shop for a $5.00 VCR or find local cable store to upgrade to a dvr box for $10.00. Just do it.
The Team, The Team, The Team.
Don't have cable, so
Don't have cable, so upgrading to dvr isn't an option. Finding a vcr just for this isn't ideal either. I suppose I can wait for it to show up on mgovideo (maybe late that night?), but would much prefer a more convenient option. If BTN and ESPN have their games available on replay, shouldn't the NCAA/Turner be able to offer the same sorta thing, especially considering lots of people will be at work during their games?
Does that mean you don't have a tv?
Or just not cable? If the latter TiVo has nothing to do with cable and they basically popularized the dvr. And I imagine there are a lot cheap on the secondary market considering most tv providers now have their own dvrs.
If you watch everything online, check the CBS website. There's an App you can watch all the games, but I don't know that you can replay them. Unlike ESPN you don't have to subscribe to watch, just get it.

Thanks for the Tivo idea.
Thanks for the Tivo idea. Didn't realize it could work without cable. I just checked Portland craigslist though, and they're all at least $60. Not worth it to use a couple times a year.
I have a TV and antenna, though I literally only use it for a few sports games a year. I really hope that the CBS/NCAA app will have replays available like BTN and ESPN. I'm new in town and don't have many friends here, but may be able to borrow a vcr from someone. Still would much prefer a more convenient option. I'll try to e-mail CBS about the replay thing.
i dont know the answer for
i dont know the answer for this year, but either one year or two years ago CBS allowed all of the streams to be watches at later times. Hopefully they will do so again this year.
Streaming UM games early Sunday morning from Korea, since 2007
Really hope so too. It's
Really hope so too. It's commonplace on BTN and ESPN, so you'd think it wouldn't be that difficult. Just not sure why they wouldn't mention anything on the web page. Sent a "feedback" e-mail through the March Madness website but not sure where that goes. Will update if I hear back.
If you're looking for a cheap future fix
Check things like Ebay and other websites with used items. You'll have shipping costs, but maybe you can bid one cheap and cover them. It won't help you now because though you can get them for cheaper than $60 to get it to you by Thursday would make the shipping costs prohibitive. But if you can find one you get for really cheap (they had buy it now for $30, with $15 shipping, so if you can bid for one, cheaper than that for sure), you might solve any future problems for an economical amount.

Where did you find this out? I am interested in other start times.
Also on CBS per rothstein.

Thx
Great info. Thx. I'm on the road all week, so I'm happy to get this info now so I can carefully plan my Thursday watching options. The prime time slot really helps.
7:15
Does that mean it's on TNT?
Edit: if it's on CBS that must mean they're switching the scheduled times for the networks around.

My friends and I just
My friends and I just discussed the palace is going to be a hornets nest. With half of the fans cheering there for Sparty They will all cheer against us during our game. Michigan State fan base is a sad scene of jealous people. That place is going to get downright nasty on Saturday if both Michigan and Michigan State play that day. We have a sweet that serves alcohol and I will be half Michigan State and half Michigan fans in it
The games are staggared,
The games are staggered, there won't be many if any Spartans in there for our night cap. Would you seriously buy tickets just to boo your rival?
Blank.....Blank......You're not looking at the big picture here.
"Would Sparties seriously buy tickets just to boo their rival?"
You have to ask?
Those on a budget might have to skip their own game.
I believe that.....
he's talking about Saturday and not Thursday. We will play the second game so, if Sparty wins the first game as expected, you can bet your ass that most of the fans will stick around specifically to cheer against Michigan.
All right Lemmings. Bring the heat.
Aren't they playing in the early afternoon though?
I doubt they'll stick around just to heckle Michigan...then again, who knows...
Rooting for both
I don't see why MSU would root for Michigan to lose. Personally, I'm rooting for both teams in the tourney. There's no reason not to root for B1G teams
Except Wisconsin. Fuck
Except Wisconsin. Fuck Wisconsin.
But....
....you don't let an irrational hatred dictate the choices you make.
All right Lemmings. Bring the heat.
Nah
Being in the same region is actually even BETTER for Michigan. The ticket packages are only good for one of the regions. Michigan State fans aren't going to buy both sets of packages, so they'll stick to cheering for their own team.
Thursday will be fine, it's
Thursday will be fine, it's Saturday that well be interesting. Because there is only one session Saturday, if Michigan and msu both win there first round games, you will have to buy a ticket good for both games, meaning the fans will be very split.
You have a "sweet"?
That's "suite" dude.
Sparty at noon, so hopefully
Sparty at noon, so hopefully their fans won't stick around 5 hours to troll us.
Farming season is over, I bet they will spend days and nights
there just to hang around with their MooU friends.
Tickets are only good for
Tickets are only good for certain sessions unless you buy a weekend pass I believe. Meaning that ushers will come around and kick people out at certain times. Odds are very few MSU fans will be around when Michigan plays and vice versa
And yay Raftery, even if it

I like Verne. At least he seems excited to call every game, without being as annoying as Vitale.

Verne does not know what's going on anymore. 5 years ago, they were my favorite team, but he can't do the job at this point. Raftery is the best though.

What the heck is that little squeal that Raferty does at the beginning of the game that sounds like Beaker from the Muppet Show?

FWIW
The tickets come in two sessions on Thursday. I would guess there are a decent amount of MSU fans who will sell their evening sessions and UM fans who will sell their afternoon sessions. Going from 12:15 to literally close to midnight is a long day. People may try to get some of their money back when their team isn't playing. Saturday would be interesting with UM and MSU theoretically playing back to back.
Schedule
Thanks For The Info...
It's probably much better for me that it is on at 7:15 PM on Thursday, although I was not above scheduling this game as a "meeting" with our office administrator and booking our conference room (with its 60-inch TV) if needed.
