Michigan Thursday: Less Night - More Noon

I have a theory that Jim Harbaugh's Wolverines don't play well during night games, because coach hates night games.  Jimmy prefers to lace them up and play at 12:00 or 1:00 not 7:00 or 8:00.

With Fox Sports now joining ESPN and the BTN showing Big Ten prime-time games, the more likely the Wolverines will end up playing after dinner.    We know that NBC has already put Michigan at ND in primetime but the new probable Big Ten list seems a bit much.

Michael Spath tweeted out yesterday that he has a source that is saying Michigan could be in primetime against Nebraska and Penn State at home and MSU in East Lansing.   Usually, the football program prefers to have only one night home game per season, but I expect that is going to be very difficult to do with one of the Big Ten's top brands.

So the talented Wolverines will not only have one of the hardest schedules in the country, they are also going to be playing in uncomfortable time slots.  I guess they better get comfortable being uncomfortable.

  • Donovan Jeter confirms that he tore his meniscus in practice last season and has now moved to DT from DE.
