BYU gametime ???
August 25th, 2015 at 11:15 AM ^
I thought for sure this was already a 3:30 kick. If its not already though, I'd plan for it to one.
August 25th, 2015 at 11:19 AM ^
Check the team's web site (FERGODSAKAE). LINK
It's still TBA
August 25th, 2015 at 11:21 AM ^
we're going to wait for you to plan something or wait until you're really busy with worth or family stuff THEN release the start time.
August 25th, 2015 at 11:41 AM ^
FYI, you have my favorite MGoUsername, although possibly for reasons that you will not understand unless you are from DC or the Maryland suburbs of DC.

DOUBLE POST. Balls.

That is the only reason I would want this game (and any other pacific/mountain time zone teams) to be at noon. Other than those, I hate noon kicks. 3:30 or later, please.
August 25th, 2015 at 12:38 PM ^
August 25th, 2015 at 1:38 PM ^
Bo wanted 1pm kicks. Noon is a product of TV schedules.

Is this documented or just your guess?

That means there is no time. I think there's some space-time continium at play.
Also, we've never lost to Idle University and we've never given up a point to Open College in case you were wondering if we had a chance in those games.
August 25th, 2015 at 11:39 AM ^
Bye University.
August 25th, 2015 at 11:39 AM ^
Hopefully on Sunday, that way they forfeit.
August 25th, 2015 at 11:40 AM ^
Per conference rule, the game time will not be announced before September 14. So no need to even check again for 3 weeks. It might be announced as late as September 20.
It appears to have the inside track for the ABC selection (a lot of terrible Big Ten games that week), but obviously Michigan will have to have 2 wins before the game gets picked. Even given that it is an ABC selection, though, it's still too soon to guess when the game will be. Probably 3:30, but there are not many potential prime time games for ABC that night.
Both UCLA at Arizona and USC at Arizona State take place that day; I figure one of them gets picked up as the prime time ABC game. So that leaves noon or 3:30 on ABC for BYU-Michigan. Don't count out noon on ABC (that's when the Oregon State game takes place), but 3:30 is more likely.
August 25th, 2015 at 12:51 PM ^
So they will probably put one of those two games in primetime. Plus I think Hackett said we're not playing any night games. I don't know if he'd risk pissing off alumni by changing the time to a night game this close to the season.
August 25th, 2015 at 1:23 PM ^
Yes, but not completely; ABC is also allowed to show Pac-12 games in prime time. They are already showing Stanford at USC at 8:00 on September 19. ABC showed USC-UCLA and Oregon-Oregon State in prime time last year, and there were also several other weeks where FOX did not show a prime time Pac 12 game.
But yes, it's unlikely that Michigan will schedule a night game on 13 days' notice. Ann Arbor doesn't really have the night game infrastructure that other places have; it takes a little more planning here.
August 25th, 2015 at 11:41 AM ^
Games, times, channel.....
August 25th, 2015 at 12:17 PM ^
That is a nice site, but I've always been partial to the lsu ncaa tv site.
In addition to showing all games and networks, it includes scheduled games that have not yet been assigned a network or time. The only drawback as that all times are Central, but I find a little 'quick math' keeps me sharp.

August 25th, 2015 at 12:52 PM ^
That makes some people angry on the interwebs.
August 25th, 2015 at 1:30 PM ^
I know. Didn't want to drop this, but you have backed me into it.
August 25th, 2015 at 11:42 AM ^
will be announced Monday afternoon on September 14. The way the first two weeks go will determine how and when the tv networks choose the games. You'll know no later than that.
This is the game I'm going to for my annual Michigan game this season, so believe me I am waiting for the start time of this one, too. I'll admit that it smelled like a 3:30 kick to me since the beginning, but we'll see.
August 25th, 2015 at 1:28 PM ^
August 25th, 2015 at 11:45 AM ^
August 25th, 2015 at 11:55 AM ^
LOL, wow. What an AWESOME thread. All you have to do is go to http://www.mgoblue.com and check the schedule. If it is not listed, then it has not been announced. How is that difficult?
August 25th, 2015 at 12:02 PM ^
Michigan hasn't announced it, but Jim Hackett called me this afternoon and let me know that it's going to be a 3:30PM kickoff.
August 25th, 2015 at 1:19 PM ^
Called you this afternoon and you posted this at 12:02? That's a quick call and consequent post. Must've already been in this thread waiting for Jim's call.
August 25th, 2015 at 1:27 PM ^
He just called ME and said it was a noon game. Had a pretty good chuckle, too, about what he told some other dude a little while ago.
August 25th, 2015 at 12:07 PM ^
I would assume noon.
August 25th, 2015 at 12:10 PM ^
I can confirm for everyone that it's a 3:30 start.
Because I have a to be at a wedding that day at 4:00.
August 25th, 2015 at 12:21 PM ^
Also, do you have any full games on YouTube? I have been trying to locate a bunch, which I was successful at, but would like more. If not, no big deal. I am particularly looking for 2007 M/Illinois and 2007 M/MSU. I have only found the edited/cut versions.

Because some people's lives don't revolve around college football. If your life does, cool. But I've always found it profoundly ugly when people whine about this like everyone is supposed to have the same interests and passions or that somehow the football fandom of some of their guests should take precedence over everything else.
It's the way a child would look at it, not an adult.
August 25th, 2015 at 1:42 PM ^
Booooo. No fall weddings.
August 26th, 2015 at 12:06 AM ^
Just an FYI the world and the sun and our galaxy, at the very least, revolve around college football. Now quit drinking and go to bed.
(At the very least provide TVs at your event.)
August 26th, 2015 at 1:01 AM ^
You are clearly wrong.

They are just hard to find, really. I just prefer the full, original broadcast (minus the commercials, of course) because it's great sitting on a couch, watching them because it gets me completely jacked for the coming season. Thanks for replying.
August 25th, 2015 at 1:02 PM ^
My best friend is getting married at 4PM the day of the MSU game. And he's an MSU grad. I'll trade you these wedding dates, plus I'll take one of your engagements on a Saturday next September.
August 25th, 2015 at 7:43 PM ^
Why on earth would he schedule his marriage for the day of that game as an MSU grad????
Unless he literally is such a non-fan he couldn't identify Mark Dantonio, that is a terrible wedding date.
August 26th, 2015 at 12:08 AM ^
Why? He graduated from Michigan Staee. I am sure his wife did the scheduling and just told him that with a 3:30 kick off that leaves plenty of time for a 4:00 Wedding.
August 25th, 2015 at 12:17 PM ^
General rule of thumb:
If its not up on MGoBlue, it hasn't been announced. Check there first before posting to the blog about it.
