Would you want a night game against MSU at the Big House?

Like not at all.

bedtime is typically in the 10:00-ish range and has season tickets, I disapprove of night games.  But in this case, I'm willing to take one for the team and come out at night.  All this assumes that MSU recovers from their implosion and makes the game somewhat relevant.  Otherwise, it's a waste of everyone's effort to make this a night game.  

The Big House has an amazing atmosphere at night!

I'd be for it, but I'd likely be watching on TV, not in person.  On a weekend night I typically don't mind late.

With kids doing fall Satuday sports from now through eternity..... late games benfit me... attendance at noon games is near impossible. 3:30 games are hit or miss... Night Games would be awesome.

Good for recruiting, great atmosphere, national exposure and fantastic to watch

Harbaugh does not want night games. He likes to get home on Saturday nights and enjoy the (presumed) win. If the game starts at 8PM he probably doesn't get home until 230AM. During the football season - September thru early December, Saturday nights are his only "off time". IMO - he's earned the right to push against home night games (we will play many away night games anyway).

Warde fell on the sword last year and he will continue to do so moving forward. The only way we start to have night games in the Big House is if Harbaugh determines it will benefit crootin compared to the enjoyment he gets out of being at home on Saturday night.

We should have 1-2 night games a season.

No

You don't play under .500 garbage teams at night.

I honestly wouldn't mind as long as we put up a wall and kept anyone without tickets off campus. I don't want their trash trashing the place even more than usual

I've never understood why people are so against night games. The arguments against them are pretty lame and pretty much apply to any game, not just night games.

In genreal I'd rather not play OSU at night just because it is so late in the year and if it is going to be that cold, I would prefer there are least be the possibility of some sunlight, but for a #1 vs #2, I would take it and I would like it. On the other side of the coin, I really likied UTL 1 and 2 because it was early in the season and it was still plenty warm and without the sun beating down on what, in September, can sometimes be a rather hot day.

In a year where our only major non-November candidate is MSU, I'm all for it, particularly when they are so early on the schedule like this year. I'd also be cool with Nebraska, PSU, and probably even Wisconsin in a night game under similar circumstances, but looking ahead to when our better OOC schedule starts kicking in, I would say I would rather hold the big night game for an infrequent opponent, like Texas, Oklahoma, UCLA, and so on. File ND under that category too if that continues to be an every once in a while deal.

But at some point, do you not think the dollars that would be waved for a prime time airing of The Game would not be too much for either the bucknuts or our AD to turn down? Not saying it will be soon, but it never makes sense to say "never" when it comes to big time sports and what dollars can do.

Hell no. Noon and only noon.

A) Fuck Michigan State B) (as if you needed anything more than A) I don't want those asshats on campus any longer than necessary. They're insufferable sober. They're complete and utter degenerate assholes when intoxicated.

Don't they all have curfew or something?

If I'm there to watch a night game I sure as hell would like someone better than fuckin sparty to watch

if you read my post, there are three reasons I guess. First, the Michigan State game will sell out no matter when it is scheduled. Second, I suggest at least 5 possibilities for night games. personally, I wouldn't feel that two night games a season was a bad thing. Frankly, I don't get where this big game thing is critical for a night game. Use a night game 4 one of the non-conference teams, and for and early game against a Big Ten opponent. Maybe space them 3 weeks apart. 4 weeks apart. One in the first or second week of September, and one near the beginning of October. Why mess around with Michigan State. They're going to sell out the game anyway.

I, for one, would like to see it.

I was near the 40, about 35 rows up, for UTL I.  The day around Ann Arbor, the electricity in the air, the stadium at night, etc. made the atmopshere like none other.

I have been attending games at Michigan Stadium since I was 6, starting with my mother and father in 1959.  I was a student beginning in 1971, and lived in town for both undergrad and professional school.  I used to travel by car to road games in my younger days.  I sat directly behind Johnny Orr for the crushing of Rutgers and the loss to Indiana in the 1976 final in Philly at the Spectrum, as I lined up for a ticket immediately after we won the regional final, and stayed up all night outside the ticket office.  My father was a season ticket holder for many years, but I always found the way to get the best seat was to scalp in, that is until my brother began working in the AD in a pretty good position, and tickets availability was a perk of that relationship.

In short, I have been to many, many Michigan sporting events in my lifetime, and am emotionally connected to the school as anyone.  My brother and I scalped into the first Pistons NBA title game in 1989, witnessing the final of a four-game sweep of the Lakers. I have been to more OSU games than I have fingers.

I can unequivocally say that the night game against ND, even though you knew that team was really not going anywhere, was the most exciting sporting event I have ever witnessed in person, college or pro.  100,000 people going nuts singing in the stadium late at night, nobody wanting to leave will be forever etched in my brain.  

MSU, or OSU, at night would have the potential to top that.  I understand the concerns, but do not buy the logic of not wanting such a game at night.  It is a natural, and will come to pass I bet, just not in my lifetime, which is ok.  

The question, like "should freshmen be eligible?", or "should we be allowed to go to a Bowl other than the Rose Bowl?, really answers itself.  

Oh, them. No thanks.

Yes x 1000

If the football program can figure out the logistics to taking the team and support staff to Italy, it can figure out how to get a night game with State. I'll tweet Coach Harbaugh to see if he can make it happen.

I say yes. I'm always down for a night game. It ups the ante and allows me to have my full Saturday day for non-michigan related activities such as, watching our rivals or other big games, yardwork or last but not least work related items.

Selfishly I would freaking love more night games. I work nearly every Saturday afternoon and typically have to pick and choose the games I take off for. The avoiding spoilers for 4-5 hours thing is a drag and not always possible.

Plus I don't really buy the whole too drunk Staee theory here. If you don't want to do it, don't do it.

If Auburn, Clemson, Bama, UF... can have night games against rivals, why shouldn't we?

The drunk fan argument doesn't make any sense either. I mean if it's a noon game, people booze fast and hard starting at 7am (and sneak liquor into the stadium). Timing doesn't have anything to do with drunkenness.

I think it'd be fine.

Nothing would be sweeter than to decimate Staee in a night game.  THis would be outstanding.  I am generally in support of night games anyway due to the exposure they get and energy they generate.  Tons of fun.

would be a party all night - great for recruits too

Wish we didn't have to play on the road at night either...

No. 

Win or lose, MSU has a history of ugly post game behavior. No matter when the game starts, the stadium will fill for an MSU game and it will get national coverage. SImply no reason to deal with the aftermath of a night game with those guys.
