I just hope the majority of the games don't kickoff at 3:30 again this year, but I'm sure they will. Have to make sure those students can nurse their hangovers and ALMOST make it to their seats by kickoff. Only missing half of the flipping first quarter. Bags O'Douche.

Some people are on the waiting list for years to try to get tickets and these jackwagons take it all for granted. Don't they understand its ][V][ichigan football fergodsakes!!

I thought the reasoning for the late kickoffs had more to do with kow-towing to the TV networks than trying to get students there.

We had more noon games under RR because we stunk. The better we are as a team the later we will kickoff.

I'd rather all games kick off at 3:30 or later. Am I the only one?

Well, last year, we had several noon starts.

We will always have a few 12 games but I do expect us to start getting more of the 330 games. I am willing to bet almost every 330 game will have either us or Ohio* in it.

Nope. You are not alone. It gives you the morning to get crap done, yet ends early enough to leave the night free other events. 3:30 is a great start time.

Agreed. And for those of us who travel in for games, the 3:30 kicks allow for a kot more tailgating -- which isn't to say getting drunk, but part of the gameday experience.

Well, last year, we had several noon starts.

We had four noon starts last year.

I just like the noon starts because I hate waiting for kickoff. I can get plenty of tailgating in before a noon kickoff. I usually travel from Indianapolis to Ann Arbor for a couple games a year. I just come up on Friday night and get to tailgating around 7:30am or 8am if it is a noon kickoff. 3:30 starts are ok, but I just prefer noon.

I'm sure it does, I was just being a dick about the students and their ability to show up for the game on time.

 

[Michchamp]

All our games should start at 4:32 P.M. Central time, and anyone who disagrees with me is a COMPLETE toolshed. COMPLETE. TOOLSHED.

How do you know we didn't stink because of all the noon starts?

How do you know that the reason we're better as a team when we have more late starts is simply we're better as a team when we have more late starts?

And please, don't try to give me some horseshit rationalization like "well...the opponent each week has the same start time as we do..."...so fuckin' lame...

Well because silly! RichRod came from WV where they don't put so much emphasis on personal hygene and BATHING!

Lack of bathing = stink. Duh!

I absolutely degree, but may I be so bold as to request the kickoff take place precisely 10 seconds after so it can be 4:32:10??? Talk about a great countdown to kickoff!!!
