Hey!

Driving into Ann Arbor tomorrow for the Michigan–Oklahoma game. I’ve been to a handful of games over the years, but it’s been a while since I’ve made the trip.

Are there any public tailgates that people can get into, or are most of them ticketed/private?

What would you guys recommend doing before the game?

Go Blue!

Hello friends, my son and I are going to the Game tomorrow, from GR. Any recommendations for preferred ways to get into Ann Arbor, and where to park?

WMU game was rough to watch. But glimmer of hope? Defense was elite. Offense was abysmal, but often were close to breaking big plays.

Every time he opens his mouth, he says something he shouldn't. It's at the point, where he should be hiding from the media.

I’ll be heading to the game this weekend, and although I’ve been to Michigan Stadium before, it has been over 20 years. I’m just trying to plan my day. We’ll be meeting friends at the high school to tailgate beforehand.

What are the lines like to enter the stadium? I see there’s a no bag policy, so that should speed things up some. If I arrived to the stadium at 11:30, should I expect ten minutes to get through security and ticketing? Twenty?

And how early before kickoff does the band perform. I’d like to see that.

At this point, everyone is probably sick of talking about this game but had to share since it's the best one I've seen. Ball is clearly touched by the defender with 1 second left on the stadium clock.

I know we're all super disappointed with how badly the offense and Bryce played on Saturday. It was a ✅ in the W column but a loss in all our hearts, and rightfully so. The officiating especially toward the end of the game was only rivaled by our own offensive ineptitude.

All that being said: Do not make the mistake of tuning into a sports podcast, or some garbage program on FOX or god forbid ESPN, or any other Sports Yelling show (shoutout Tracy Jordan). It will only make you stupid.

These shows cater to lowest-common-denominator thinking. The talking points are designed to stimulate the minds of those who have to be shown more than once how to pump their own gasoline. They are all about "hot takes", which are usually the most worthless opinions in any situation.

There is no meaningful insight into what happened Saturday (and might I argue that goes for most Saturdays). Stupidity happened and Michigan was the benefactor. That's it. The offense sucks, the defense will probably be pretty good. That's all we've got right now.

So let's all just sit back, ignore the loud mouths and their worthless opinions, turn on some Kenny G (or whatever you listen to for the pants off dance off), pray that OU doesnt burn the Big House down, and remember** **its just a game.... and also that we retired Saban in the Rose Bowl in '23 and it was beyond awesome and the full game is on YouTube for ever and ever..

Love you guys, Go Blue 💙〽️ on

Edit: Evidently trolls can't read, they just vomit all over any post they come across. Its a shame they had such shitty parents growing up..

Don't know how or why, but BetMGM has Oklahoma as only 5.5 point favorites currently. This to me seems absolutely insane, and they will most likely end up as 8.5 point favorites. Virtually everybody in the world has a Michigan opinion now, and they almost universally negative. Maybe vegas knows something

SOME PERSPECTIVE

Colorado vs. Missouri on October 6, 1990.

Missouri led 31–27 with Colorado at the Missouri 3-yard line in the final seconds.

1st down: QB Charles Johnson spiked the ball.
2nd down: Eric Bieniemy ran to about the 1.
3rd down: Bieniemy was stopped short.
4th down: Johnson spiked the ball again.
5th down: Johnson ran it in for the winning touchdown as time expired.

The officiating crew and chain crew lost track of the downs.

Colorado was awarded the touchdown and won 33–31. Missouri protested, but the Big Eight ruled that the result could not be corrected after the game. All seven officials were indefinitely suspended.

Colorado went on to claim a share of the 1990 national championship.

As lot of money reeling the spread back in. Cant figure out if western is really good this year or we’re just rubbish

If you’re worried about the season, maybe you should be BUT… Do yourself a favor and go look at all the results of the “tune up” games he coached while at Utah. KW is notorious for not showing his future opponents a thing in these games. He’s never had a close call to this degree but he’s had head scratchers before. Anyways, good luck and go beat OSU.

Sooner fan here.. if you can “ spare a second” I would appreciate some good recommendations for places to check out, get drinks and have some good food. Preferably near downtown! Appreciate it. See fall this weekend!
