2018-19 Michigan Night Game Update

Submitted by Ma1zeandB1ue on

Michael Spath tweeted this a little while ago. Looks like MSU, Nebraska, and PSU are the front-runners for night games this year.

I am not sure how much new information is here but this was news to me (albeit not that surprising).

I was thinking Nebraska and Wiscy would be the prime candidates for night games.  Once we get to November (PSU on 11/3), night games can get pretty chilly.

We'd have a progression of a nooner, 3:30pm, and 8pm kickoff for our first 3 home games if Nebraska is played at night.  Tic-tac-toe.

I don't quite get the "ugly" MSU thing.  Yeah their stadium IS the ugliest in the B1G - but I've gone to the last 2 games up there and I've personally endured worse fans at Purdue and IU.  The only game that should NEVER be at night is the ohio game.

Go Blue!

Why Nebraska? I mean, if it helps the team destroy them I'm all for it because I live in Omaha and want to lord a blowout over my co-workers like none-other.

I'll say it again:

90% noon games

10% 3:30 games

No more than one night game every two years.

Road games can do whatever they want.

Now get off my lawn!!!!

I'm picturing Spartan faithful slinking out of the stadium into the dusk. The crunching of gravel as they slowly meander into the landfill night air. Later tuning in to hear Goerge Blaha describe how Harbaughs voice rang out...."Where are All the Spartans!?!"

I guarantee the MSU game will be a combination monsoon/blizzard after a sunny day with temperatures in the 70's.

You can dislike night games but they objectively have a better atmosphere and are the only times the Michigan fan base even bothers to attempt to impact the game
