The Ga❌e has been canceled

Fox now has several months to convince UM and OSU to start playing their game at night, when TV ratings could potentially be higher than if played at noon - in seriousness, Fox and ABC should discontinue airing noon games on Saturdays so that Western affiliates can fulfill their E/I commitments more easily; cable networks are not bound by such requirements; as such UM and OSU fans living on the West Coast can sleep in if that game is the only one they care about watching (noon on the East Coast is 9 AM on the West Coast, which the Pac-12 and Mountain West have no business playing that early in their time zones; the NFL never schedules morning games on the West Coast or even in the Rocky Mountains, the earliest local time an NFL game is allowed to start is noon Central).

Wow

 

Michigan didn’t want to get embarrassed so they hid behind covid.

Michigan allegedly only had like 40 players able to practice leading up to games the past two weeks. Of all coaches, really doubt Harbaugh would want to not play, even if it meant getting his *** kicked.

I don't see how you can put a team with 5 games played into the playoffs. Too small of a sample size.

This is what I don't understand. You know, I know, everybody that follows football knows Ohio St. is a top 4 team in the country based off of talent, record and HC/QB.

Do you REALLY need to see Ohio St. beat the brakes off of Rutgers, Iowa and Maryland 54-17 a few more times so they can get to the minimum game requirement to qualify so that you 'for sure' know they are a top 4 team??

Like, what are we talking about here. Holding Ohio St. out of the top 4 because Maryland/Michigan cancelled on THEM would be a abomination just so people can justify putting 1 loss Florida/A&M in

If you do that you can't have any more PAC10 night games. Wouldn't be fair to make east coast people have to stay up to 1 or 2 in the morning to watch. Also get rid of the baseball games that start at 10:30 east coast time.

Or just deal with it, if you care that much you'll watch. If you don't you won't.

Nevertheless UM-OSU should be at night. It's all about ratings.

And it’s rating are phenomenal every year where Michigan is willing to show up.

 

fox and abc have never complained about the rating this game has received....because they are always top 5 for all Cfb games to date for that season
