I'd like to call the Nebraska game "interesting" but I completely follow your line of thinking. I'd like to see JIm Harbaugh from the very start of the game approach it with a "beat them to death early, then keep beating them just in case", but it's Jim Harbaugh. When we have him we don't need to have a Freddy Krueger or Jason Voorhees opponent.

Night games are nice for me, selfishly, as we are a soccer family with three kids playing and almost always busy Saturday afternoons. It's nice to sit around with my boys in the evening and watch the game. That said, it seems like Michigan tends to have weird shit happen in night games. Hopefully this one will be smooth and enjoyable.

Fill your (personal) brown jugs with hearty night time refreshments!
September 25th, 2023 at 12:27 PM ^
I absolutely hate this. I already waste Friday nights and Saturday mornings dreading a potential loss. This just extends that time period.
September 25th, 2023 at 12:33 PM ^
Can't imagine how you felt 2007-2020 if you feel like this now.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:51 PM ^
Damn, really? I was one of the lowest on this board in the depths of BPONE, and I stayed there until the Wisconsin away win in 2021. Now, even I am optimistic. Have you not watched anything in 2021 or 2022?
And it's Minnesota. They just lost to Northwestern. And Mo Ibrahim isn't walking through the door for them.....

This games either gonna be a 31-7 chokeout or Kaliakmanis is going to annoyingly turn into an Unstoppable Throw God for an evening
September 25th, 2023 at 12:30 PM ^
Ugh. NBC execs are so stupid. At least it's not on the 'Cock.
September 25th, 2023 at 12:34 PM ^
Lame, lame, lame. That makes it 4 straight times that Michigan/Minnesota is a night game, whether home or away. Even the covid season game was at night.
September 25th, 2023 at 12:35 PM ^
Thanks for posting. Not a fan of night games either but thankful to now plan that Saturday. Wish we had all the kickoff times already and look forward to hearing when the rest of TBD times are set. Beat Nebraska and Go Blue !
September 25th, 2023 at 12:39 PM ^
I'm excited to play for the jug again, and it's a rivalry trophy that deserves primetime. I like it!
September 25th, 2023 at 1:13 PM ^
I never like an away night game and was a little concerned about this one but not quite as much after seeing them fall apart to NW.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:14 PM ^
Ugh. I will be at Michigan v Providence in Yost Arena at that time. It would be nice if they could move the hockey game to 4:00 on Saturday--they are playing Sunday at 4:00 already.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:18 PM ^
When's the last time hockey played at Yost during an away football game? Seems likely to get a new time
September 25th, 2023 at 1:29 PM ^
I think the answer to that is December 4, 2021 (Michigan beat Minnesota 6-2 while the football team played Iowa in the Big Ten Championship game).
Also October 9, 2021, Michigan at Nebraska football took place at the same time as Lake Superior at Michigan hockey.
September 25th, 2023 at 5:51 PM ^
Ah, yes. I was at that game vs Minnesota. They showed the Blake Corum TD run and the DIME BY THE DON! Place went absolutely nuts.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:30 PM ^
Anyone know where the M sections are at Huntington Bank Stadium? Just bought flights from LA.
September 25th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
IIRC, the "visiting team sections" are located on the school's stadium site online. But given that this is Minny, ALL sections will be Michigan sections for this game, including the premium seats.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:32 PM ^
will be my first time there, decided to change my plans from going to Nebraska this weekend instead. Looking forward to this game, going to be a long day of drinking.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:35 PM ^
It'll probably snow too.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:41 PM ^
Not at all surprising.
Minnesota's level of play this year suggests that this game should, on paper, be over in somewhat early fashion, but I've seen enough Michigan football to know that I shouldn't be surprised if they get into one of their annual "clunkers" of a game where they let a team that is otherwise incredibly mediocre play largely mistake-free, inspired football, and an otherwise mediocre QB to play his best career game.
This will probably be another 34-10 "boa constrictor slow but steady choke-out" game, but there's a not-zero percent chance that "The Greek Gunslinger" decides he's going to live up to his namesake for this game and make the life of every Michigan fan a living hell for 3.5 hours.
September 25th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
and what's with the late notice on the game time? Have a friend who's been trying to plan a sizable viewing party/picnic around this game. This certainly doesn't make his job easy. Seems like B1G is getting more and more self-centered with how they make their decisions.
September 25th, 2023 at 5:34 PM ^
All game times are decided either (a) before the season, (b) 13 days before the game, or (c) 6 days before the game. That's it, those are the only options. This has been the rule for over a decade.
September 25th, 2023 at 2:03 PM ^
I know im in the minority but I absolutely love night games, especially on the road. I travel to lots of road games and I hate 11am local starts.
September 25th, 2023 at 3:31 PM ^
Shit! I’m driving to Minnesota and staying in Eau Clare hotel. I’ll be lucky to get back to hotel before midnight. This sucks!
September 26th, 2023 at 1:43 PM ^
Any chance the band will travel for the Little Brown Jug? Assuming it's a firm no, given that it's two weeks before they play at Sparty. Barring playoffs, it's almost certainly the only game I'll make this year.
September 26th, 2023 at 4:11 PM ^
Flying into MSP early morning on Friday. Meeting lots of old buddies from West Quad Chicago House circa late 70's and other Michigan Alums and friends from the Twin Cities and afar. We are going to be loud and animated during the game, I promise you. And I've got until late Sunday night to recover. Those direct flights not the best schedule but less hassle.
Good stuff awaits! PJ will be rowing astern by the end of the game!! GO BLUE!!
