Do Germans really watch college football? If so that's pretty incredible.

I was surprised to see German commentators talking about this game, and also Michigan's game vs Notre Dame!

Aber ja!!! We both do!!!

1) A lot of service personnel in Germany since they are/were a close allie.
2) I know many grads that have headed to Germany/Austria for better pay, more culture, etc.
3) If I could go I would, better food, better spirits, access to fortress Europa

Granted, but I don't think any of those need the game translated into German.
November 6th, 2019 at 9:48 AM ^
Why not, there are Americans who watch the Bundesliga.

The German NFL Europe teams were some of the only teams to have organizational stability and a pretty good fan base, back in the day. There are still some American football clubs there.

Well thank god!

Harbaugh is certainly a German name.
As was Schembechler. Maybe there's a big M following there?
Had to watch a little of this and took me way back to living with a German chick who spent at least an hour every day talking on the phone sprechenin sie deutsch. That is a hard language to listen to.
November 6th, 2019 at 3:24 AM ^
Harbaugh is a British name actually

Which tribe—-English, Scots, or Welsh?

It’s too bad Max Bortenschlager didn’t play.

I thought I read that Bo was of Dutch ancestry.

Geil. Ich habe Deutsch als Nebenfach bei UMich gelernt.
November 6th, 2019 at 3:12 AM ^
Das ist sehr gut
November 6th, 2019 at 6:15 AM ^
Wunderbar!!
November 6th, 2019 at 7:11 AM ^
Vielen Dank!
Das war ausgezeichnet!
I can practice my German while watching Michigan football!
November 6th, 2019 at 7:38 AM ^
nein danke ... einmal war genug!

When I was in the Barbershop on Saturday, they were watching on normal ABC, all of a sudden it was broadcasted in Spanish. They don't even have ESPN Deportes in their package. They only have basic local channels. They don't r en have ESPN. All of the commercials were in English.

I had the same thing happen last year, and it was also when I was watching ABC. Out of nowhere, the announcer was suddenly speaking Spanish. Lasted about 10 seconds, and I didn't understand a word (which made me feel like I was back in Spanish 101 in sophomore year.) Weirdest thing.

That entire game was in Espanol.

I think we can agree that German is the best language for football commentating. Japanese would be great, too.
November 6th, 2019 at 9:16 AM ^
Is this so the family of Julius Welschof can watch the team? I kind of like the idea of UMich being the destination school for all Germans.
November 6th, 2019 at 10:02 AM ^
... which would soon have Mork screaming, "Ich brauche einen Vorgesetzten!!!"
Athough it's OT, I'm posting this for your entertainment:
Enjoy, with or without a supervisor!

Mandatory “no one who speaks German could be an evil man.“

Uh....

I love the studio-diner at 1:44.

This is awesome. Were we their game of the week or do they broadcast a whole lineup?
Not knowing any German, it's interesting to hear English words suddenly dropped in there. I heard a "pass completion rate" right before kickoff.
November 6th, 2019 at 12:52 PM ^
Despite not knowing 98% of what they said, it is better than the crap we hear on English television broadcasts.
