Yeah, I was thinking about that the other day. I’ve always been an early riser, so I’d love to have Gameday already going when I get up at 7, and real live football on by 9.

People located in the midwest probably don’t realize how cool it is to sleep in on Saturday a.m., wake up, pour some Joe, cook up some eggs and cheer for the Maize and Blue at 9:00 a.m. on the West Coast.

That’s why 12 noon kickoffs are the best.

The game is over by 1:00 p.m and I have time to run errands, etc.

I’ll be at attending the Western Michigan game, so I’ll have more time to buy my UM gear, stash it at the hotel and head to the game. Oh, and drink a few more brewski’s before kickoff! :)

Tim–

Need your help. Nick Saban was complaining in an article written by ESPN (author’s last name is Lowe) that “recruiting websites” were not just asking kids where they were going but actually recruiting for their schools or against there hated rivals.

On one of the message boards I read that
was happening at UM with either Rivals or Scout or one of these Wolverine websites and there was going to be an investigation.
Could the writers a those sites being dong that? I hope not. My question is where is the line drawn as far as representing a University? Could UM be in trouble?

Call me a pessimist, but I think the WMU game is on ABC because they want to show highlights of Michigan’s opening game losses the last few years (esp. App State).

Also, I think it may be in the afternoon because RR is pushing for later games.
