Michigan-Indiana: 3:30
Ridiculous. Gonna be dark in the 2nd quarter. But I digress.

Ridiculous that the television networks want to put the #2 team in the country on later in the day so they can get more viewers. Ridiculous. I wish we sucked again so we had more noon games.
Obvious sarcasm is obvious but might not be to some.
We are good. This is going to happen. Get over it.

Change my diaper.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:19 PM ^
You're a big boy now. Use the potty.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:43 PM ^
Lol... I knew you'd be pissed as soon as I saw that.

Hence the diaper?

The fact that at your age you bitch about noon games is so odd to me.
It's going to be dark by the 2nd quarter? Why does that matter? Do you have to go in after dark?
Do you go to supper at 4:30 with Otis and Elmyra before bed at 6pm?
You sleep in a Michigan comforter like you're 7 and bitch about late games like you're 70.
So strange.

9am games are tough

I love the 9AM games. Watch some football and the game is over by 1PM with daylight left to go do stuff outside. But I'm long past the staying out until 3AM on Friday night stage of life so YMMV.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:53 PM ^
Do you have a TV outside? I ask because there are other games on throughout the day.
It's just weird to me that people don't watch the other games.
November 7th, 2016 at 1:01 PM ^
It varies. Depends on weather, what else is going on that day, and the quality of the games. I did watch a combination of AL vs LSU, UW vs Cal and the Nebraska beatdown in the evening games. I try to avoid watching 12 straight hours of football, especially if I am gonna watch NFL at all on Sunday.
November 7th, 2016 at 1:05 PM ^
I try to avoid watching 12 hours of football coverage every Saturday, too. Otherwise, I would not get the full sixteen or seventeen hours of coverage that I get every Saturday.
NFL? That is a terrible thing to watch.
November 7th, 2016 at 3:43 PM ^
No wonder you are going to retire at 35. How much money does it take to sit in your basement apartment watching TV all day?
November 7th, 2016 at 3:48 PM ^
He said he would retire at 35? HAHAHAHAHA. More tall tales from the Aussie living in New York City who is actually a miserable hometown loser from rural Ohio.
November 7th, 2016 at 3:51 PM ^
Shit, I'd love to retire at 35 because that would be next year. Fifty to fifty-five is my goal.
November 7th, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
I'm planning to die at my desk at 45, like a true American hero.

Ran in to post basically the same thing. UV4U.

+ 1 for your honesty.

That's why we have lights WD.

I f'ing heart your avatar. Is that adapted from Eddie (Iron Maiden mascot)?
November 7th, 2016 at 12:18 PM ^
If only the stadium had lights.
November 7th, 2016 at 1:45 PM ^
Ohhhhh, I see what you did there...
November 7th, 2016 at 12:19 PM ^
Dark in the 2nd quarter you say? Good thing we have permanent lights!
November 7th, 2016 at 12:19 PM ^
They have lights in the stadium so when it gets dark doesn't really matter. The conference is required to have a 330 game, and look at the other games that day, the Michigan game is probably the most interesting by default because of the stakes. I prefer noon as well but it's completely understandable that it's at 330

It could have been OSU at Sparty if one of them had held up their end of things.
November 7th, 2016 at 3:21 PM ^
as much as I hate Sparty, boy would it be nice for them to save their season by pulling off the upset. I know it's not going to happen, but what if it rains in East Lansing and Barrett continues throwing with the accuracy of a Stormtrooper (saw that on a Gameday sign for the UW-OSU game.)
November 7th, 2016 at 12:21 PM ^
I made a whole bunch of plans banking around this not happening -- I figured there'd be no way this late in the season. Fool me once...
November 7th, 2016 at 1:46 PM ^
The B1G will out-stupid you every time.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:22 PM ^
What's ridiculous about 3:30 games is the way TV schedules everything, there's about a 99.99% chance that the early game is going to run into 3:30.
November 7th, 2016 at 1:38 PM ^
We were on with time to spare this past week...
November 7th, 2016 at 1:45 PM ^
Most other teams' games aren't blow outs.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:23 PM ^
I will actually be able to watch the game.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:43 PM ^
I might miss the 1st Q, but at least I'll be able to watch most of it. For "The Game", thankfully I have DVR. Now if I can just stay disciplined enough to watch the recording without knowing the outcome....
November 7th, 2016 at 4:20 PM ^
I'm debating whether or not I should try to watch that game live after work. To do so I'd need to turn my phone off all day at work and pray that no customers mention anything about the game. It worked for the Wisky game, not sure if it's possible for OSU.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:51 PM ^
I'll be going to sleep right at kickoff. but I can't complain as I'll get to watch both Iowa and The Game later.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:23 PM ^
Now we'll have to move the kid's birthday party to late morning.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:27 PM ^
MGoKids are so selfish
November 7th, 2016 at 12:24 PM ^
at a 3:00 a.m. kickoff time with a smile on my face. Sorry you're upset about it, Grandpa. :)
November 7th, 2016 at 12:25 PM ^
I'm sure the recruits will hate it
November 7th, 2016 at 2:36 PM ^
Well it could get really cold by the end of the game. That wouldn't be ideal for any visitors from the South, but I hardly think it matters. It's Senior Day and that group will put on a show!
November 7th, 2016 at 12:25 PM ^
If only someone could invent a way to provide light artificially in a area after dark..

Darkness! Better bring the glow in the dark nerf ball.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:26 PM ^
I find the 3:30 start time to be perfect. Not that anyone cares.
November 7th, 2016 at 12:56 PM ^
I care. It's my second favorite start time. Nothing beats night games, but 3:30 is a great time, too. I simply cannot understand why anyone prefers noon games.
