It's official. Michigan vs. Alabama as the 2012 season opener, in prime time. Will be played at Cowboys Stadium, and Michigan will be the visiting team. Officiating crew from the Big 12.

I hope Michigan gets a defense put together by then.

Gotta give Michigan props for this! Really says a lot about Rich Rod, IMO.

I'm glad big ten is following OSU's lead and playing tough non divisional games. Only way to shut idiots like Mark May up.

Is anyone surprised by this? I can't even remember the last time an SEC team played an OOC game without being the home team.

I'm looking for more info on how it was determined. I can't imagine it means much other than which side of the scoreboard they are on.

IDK. LSU and Oregon will have a lot of interest. I think if Michigan wasn't down the last couple of years, you might have a case.

Depends if Michigan can turn their program around. LSU will be loaded next year and I dont know about ORegon. But both are top 10 teams now, while Michigan isnt ranked and Im guessing will get clown stomped by Bama.

LOL! LSU is going to be clownstopped next year! If you really think Bama is going to put the beat down on Michigan then I will make a bet with you right now. Alabama does not beat Michigan by more than 10 in 2012. Winner stays losers leaves the OC. I don't get why you deal with this minor league site anyway when you have your own major league site in tigerdroppings that you always refer to.

Exactly. Hell, by then UM and Bama could both have new coaches. RichRod could get the can and Saban is usually getting the itch for something new by year4/5.

Make a bet with someone who isnt ever on this site? What gain will that be?

Lol I used to be on this site a lot actually. But I threw the bet out there not for me I did for everyone else on this site so they wouldnt have to deal with someone like you anymore.
