Watch out for the purple cats.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:14 PM ^
I'll be their biggest fan.
October 23rd, 2017 at 1:49 PM ^
We get to wait all day to watch the John O'Korn offense.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:01 PM ^
What makes you think it will show up once the game starts?
October 23rd, 2017 at 1:49 PM ^
This isn't that strange, actually.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:29 PM ^
not sure if you caught that
October 23rd, 2017 at 1:55 PM ^
We took all that TV money. Guess what, they actually want something for it.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:01 PM ^
think I may need to take a break from Michigan football this weekend.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:04 PM ^
Considering kickoff is at noon...
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:20 PM ^
didn't realize this was the minny game, not rutgers. what else would i be doing at 9am this saturday
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:02 PM ^
Prepare your anus
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:21 PM ^
Get to sell my tickets again. Bet the demand for this one sucks.
October 23rd, 2017 at 5:18 PM ^
Sold!
October 24th, 2017 at 6:33 AM ^
They're still on StubHub at face value.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:28 PM ^
I'm finally coming in to see a game in AA for the first time post-Carr era, and for some reason this does not excite me. The last time I saw Michigan play Minnesota, Rickie Foggie was their QB, Michigan was ranked #2 and then... dreadfulness. This is inauspicious.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:35 PM ^
They put this game at night because Michigan is a ratings draw under almost any circumstances. But this really is a poor pick for Fox considering what else is available. To me this is proof that by involving more and more networks and doing more night games the B1G is watering down the coverage, forcing fans to wait around all day for games with little appeal ouside of their respective fan bases. Nice to see Michigan getting the attention but no one will be waiting with baited breath for this.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:35 PM ^
And for other parents with kids on campus. That weekend is parent's weekend, or whatever it's called. So we'll be there doing stuff during the day on Sat and Sun.
Wouldn't have been able to make a day game, but there's nothing on the schedule for the evening. And since we suck I can probably get the whole family in for $100 5 minutes after kickoff.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:40 PM ^
Then I still can't watch this game because my shitty local Fox affiliate pulled their channel of DirecTV.
So maybe it's for the best.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:47 PM ^
There's this thing called an antenna... If you're paying for cable, you can afford to drop 15-20 bucks and get it over the air.
October 23rd, 2017 at 3:18 PM ^
In my case, I live too far away to get a good reception. At least with the regular rabbit ears.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:51 PM ^
I have a biazarro 5 hour early morning layouver in an airport in Asia that morning that should basically line up perfectly for me watching this football game on a data network.
(I am not making this up, nor is this a brag, I would rather be in not an airport)
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:58 PM ^
Will FOX put another sporting contest on at 5:30pm that pushes back the kickoff again? My guess would be it increases viewership when contests overlap, so probably yes.
October 23rd, 2017 at 2:58 PM ^
It's because Michigan fans will watch regardless and a lot of the country will tune in hoping for a Minnesota upset. I hope Coach gets used to night games because they will keep being scheduled for the reason stated above.
October 23rd, 2017 at 3:03 PM ^
I'm just so disappointed in the MSU and PSU game that I don't even know what to say. The team is underachieving again and it's getting bad. We're winning the games we should win usually and we're not even 50/50 on the tuff games.
I feel like we've been exposed. Watch every team line up 4 and 5 long and neutralize our LB play moving forward. The team is a fascinating story because we can't seem to win a close a game or beat our rivals, RR, Hoke and now Harbaugh. Wouldn't surprise me one but if Harbaugh left us sooner then later and went back to the NFL. To many cooks in the kitchen as they say.
Sorry everyone but I'm just so upset and disappointed on how we're playing. I know it takes time but other teams are turning the corner as fast or not faster then we are. Insert Penn St

I can't take seriously anyone who doesn't know when to use than
October 23rd, 2017 at 3:23 PM ^
are dark...
October 23rd, 2017 at 3:48 PM ^
Great teams bring it regardless of time.. we want championships, we have to perform in prime time.
October 23rd, 2017 at 4:28 PM ^
they're trying to destroy Harbaugh
October 23rd, 2017 at 8:58 PM ^
Scheduling night games? Lol
October 23rd, 2017 at 4:34 PM ^
Per the contract, I hear. So they are getting them out of the way this year. Wouldn't me surprised if the loss Saturday was the final decision point.
October 23rd, 2017 at 4:36 PM ^
A Michigan night game in November I thought the big didn’t do this. Lousy idea, screw the actual attendees.
October 23rd, 2017 at 5:00 PM ^
Oh shit, according to all the gloom and doomers that means an automatic L because Harbaugh can't coach at night.Teams have cracked the code just like they have figured out Don Brown's every move. Schedule a night game and it's guaranteed defeat for Harbaugh.
October 23rd, 2017 at 5:15 PM ^
Beware of the Werebaugh
October 23rd, 2017 at 5:28 PM ^
We should win the next 3 games that will put us at 8-2.
October 23rd, 2017 at 5:34 PM ^
Smart, can’t wait to freeze my ass off with my 80 dollar tickets because the world hates our coach.
October 23rd, 2017 at 5:38 PM ^
Probably end up with Wisconsin game at night.
October 23rd, 2017 at 6:05 PM ^
Losing streak :(
October 23rd, 2017 at 8:54 PM ^
Rest of our schedule games will be night games. 2018 season...yes you guessed it...7:30pm kickoffs.
October 23rd, 2017 at 9:41 PM ^
That is all. Just: goddamnit!!
October 23rd, 2017 at 10:16 PM ^
a drunken gopher is a surly gopher
October 23rd, 2017 at 11:40 PM ^
I'm honestly a little concerned about this game as in it may be the low point of the season. I just feel this team has one really embarrassing loss left in them (not including Wisconsin and OSU).
October 24th, 2017 at 3:04 AM ^
Just why?
Is it really that hard to only have one night game every two years?
So dumb, I hate the idea of two home night games in one year at all, let alone during this type of season in which both of our losses have come in this situation of gametime slot.
October 24th, 2017 at 5:54 AM ^
On the bright side we get Gus Johnson for a game instead of Fowler/Herbstreit
October 24th, 2017 at 3:24 PM ^
scheduled our annual family game bc no chance it'd be a night game...or so I figured...we usually do likely noon kicks. We drive in from multiple locations and have 5 kids attending, most over 10 at least. will be a tough tailgate and even tougher drive home
