Remember when every game kicked off at 1 PM? Those were simpler times. You’d wake up, make a pot of coffee, and just vibe. Now? You’re refreshing Twitter at 10 AM on a Tuesday.
The networks—ABC, FOX, NBC, and the evil overlord ESPN—decide the time. They pick the most dramatic slot possible. Noon, 3:30, prime time, or that weird 7:30 PM window that ruins your entire day.
Here’s the kicker: they might not announce it until 12 days before the game. Yes, twelve days. That’s an eternity in football fan years.
So, How Do You Actually Find Out?
Don’t panic. You don’t need a detective license or a secret handshake. First, check the official Michigan Athletics website. It’s boring, but it’s the truth. Like reading the terms and conditions, but shorter.
Second, follow the Michigan Football Twitter account. They’ll post the time with a hype video of a punter doing something dramatic. You know the drill.
Third—and this is my favorite—use Google. Just type “Michigan football game time.” Google knows everything. It’s that friend who always has the answer, even when you’re being lazy.
