Because of course it is.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:54 PM ^
It is the last day of daylight savngs time (longest non New Year bar night of the year) so students can still get a nice 3 hour shift in at ricks after the game
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:31 PM ^
Ain't nothin but a heartbreak

people love jugs at night.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:40 PM ^
Shut it down.
You win.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^

Wait, we're still talking about mattresses, right?

Jugs in the morning, jugs at night, jugs in the afternoon's alright. Ain't a man on Earth that can stay alive without his jug drive.
October 23rd, 2017 at 4:45 PM ^
Feel free to take a lap around the blog after that one.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:33 PM ^
I wouldn't care about this except that we're 2 for 2 in embarrassing ourselves in front of a national TV audience under the lights this season.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:36 PM ^

October 23rd, 2017 at 12:49 PM ^
Don't worry, there won't be a national audience for this one.
October 23rd, 2017 at 4:29 PM ^
you say that, but the M-IU game had the highest viewership that day. Crazy, but the way M draws eyeballs, 75% of the games from here on out will be at night.

good God noooooooo.....

Starting to hate these night games. Michigan is 5-2 and now unranked. Minnesota still sucks. I know it's about $$$ but cmon.

I love the night games.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:14 PM ^
Could do the same to us.
Im still seeing "sure win" posts from people on here and I dont know why.
Cincy and Air Force would both lose to Minnesota. Until we beat someone for 4 quarters Ill expect us to struggle and maybe pull it out in the end.

In class, did anyone have to debate in favor of a view that they did not support?
Here's one: If Michigan played more night games, they would get accustomed to them and not play so poorly. They would learn how to stay focused during the day, not get too amped up at game time, and be more prepared to play under the different circumstances.
We get carried away with special uniforms and t-shirts, while other teams are like, "so what?" PSU had their special "white out", but they also play tomato cans at night. Maybe we should play a tomato can at night to get the whole "night game" experience out of the system before we take on a good opponent. It's just a thought. Don't totally support it, but it just popped in my mind.
October 23rd, 2017 at 4:49 PM ^
Sure, but you gotta put some game on that night. And if PSU vs. MSU is already spoken for, this is what you're left with.
And hell, it should at least be a bit entertaining.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:35 PM ^
we draw ratings
that's why
other programs are on BTN all the time, sometimes not even to the whole BTN audience
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:38 PM ^
Seems like that would be a game FOX would want in prime time that weekend, though maybe ESPN is going to be in East Lansing, otherwise puzzling they wouldn't feature that game
October 23rd, 2017 at 1:59 PM ^
Well at least the World Series will be over by then. It's planned for a 11/1 game 7.

kind of like that we will just have night games sometimes instead of UTL LOOK AT US night games. Literally every other team in the country has some night games just because night games. I think this was long overdue for this program.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:40 PM ^
Always thought the anti-night game thing was odd. Good to know the AD has moved into the modern era even with some extra $$$ motivation from Fox.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:37 PM ^
Makes perfect sense! This fucking season was pre-determined in Bizarro World!
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:37 PM ^
Didn't Fox just televise Kansas at TCU in primetime this past Saturday? I mean 0-7 Kansas who had 4 yards of offense prior to generating 17 yds on their last drive, is being televised. WTF Fox?
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:43 PM ^
but they seem to have given that up. Instead, it looks like VT @ Miami will be the primetime game. That is admittedly a good game in itself.
OSU @ Iowa and PSU @ MSU --- one of those games will feature a Top 5 team, of course ---will both be afternoon games.
There is a rule --- if a B1G game is slotted for prime-time, it MUST be a 12-day pick. It CANNOT be a 6-day pick. I guess ABC didn't want to wait for the result of PSU/OSU. So instead they punted on the B1G prime-time game and gave it to FOX?!?!?
In another curiosity --- Oklahoma/OK State is at 4 PM on Fox Sports 1. Another game that seems like FOX would want, but nope.
October 23rd, 2017 at 5:29 PM ^
The draw of OU v. Okie State is probably pretty limited outside of Oklahoma.
Michigan v. Minnesota on the other hand brings Michigan and its top 3 fanbase along with Minnesota's mid sized fanbase that brings in the upper Midwest. Don't forget about Michigan's appeal in the BosWash corridor either.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:38 PM ^
Had to have 3 total this year and next per the BIG rules. So now only have to have 1 night game next year. Perhaps PSU.
October 23rd, 2017 at 12:38 PM ^
And that's like midnight up there.
