Gameday Next Week?

Submitted by bokee88 on November 21st, 2015 at 4:46 PM

Is there any chance they bring game day to Ann Arbor a second time in a season? It would be two top 10 teams going at it in the greatest rivalry in sports (which is finally a rivalry again). What game would likely be better next week?

Unfortunately the noon start probably damns us. If I had to guess it'd be Oklahoma Ok State.

Yeah an Oklahoma team would have to lose, but we are probably the backup if that's any consolation

Really? I feel like it has to be at The Game. Biased, of course, but this is one of the premier rivalry games in the country, two of the most fervent fan bases, and it actually means something this year.

I think they try to avoid going to the same school more than once each year. If they didn't, Gameday would be in Tuscaloosa every week.

Oklahoma-Ok State has playoff implications, which trumps rivalry competitiveness

Let's do whatever we want since Michigan just went undefeated on the road, we're fans on a blog, and we have nothing to do with how OSU plays.

Are we going to forget he game up in the mountains of Utah that we played? Because I am perfectly okay with that.

I think it depends on how OK and OK St and how Stanford plays. Stanford vs ND at night I think gets the nod.

I'd guess Bedlam, although Gainesville and Palo Alto have a shot too. I like Gameday and would be happy if they came but I'm so pumped for the Game this year that I don't care that much. No game's got it better than us!

Gainesville has no shot whatsoever. That game means basically nothing.

This is kind of why o hate the playoff - two top 15 teams playing a rivalry game has to mean something. And if UF wins the SEC they'd absolutely be in the national title discussion. FSU isn't but they're still a quality team

Kirk was tweeted last week about this. He said if M and OSU wins, he suspects GameDay will come back to AA.

4 million sounds like a lot, until you consider the fact that there are only 21 last names.

If OU and Ok State both win the bedlam game will be for the Big 12 title and (likely) a spot in the playoff. Dr.Mantis is probably right about us as the backup IF OSU wins.

I think if it's NOT back in A2 it's got to be for Bedlam. Who cares about Game Day in Palo Alto they're all trying to develop the next funny cat videos app.

Doubtful since they already came to Ann Arbor for the MSU game.

My guess is Oklahoma State-Oklahoma. But of course if OSU fucks this game up then it won't matter anyway.

Buckeyes aren't holding up their end of the bargain. They really need to make some positive adjustments at halftime.

If both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State win I think that's gameday, if either loses then maybe.

Florida vs Florida St. is another option for them. Not the best game next week, but it's also a rivalry game and it's not at noon. I'd be surprised to see Gameday in AA.

there is no chance if msu wins. I don't know how I'd feel if they did because fuck osu but they aren't doing shit vs msu. A loss and no chance. A win and it's possible.

No way they come to Michigan twice in one year, and an Ohio State game twice in two weeks.

If they do pick The Game, they're going to have to come up with an alternative location than the Diag if it's a noon kick--gonna be like 10 people there for the headgear pick if the set is a mile from the stadium.
