Several top prospects were inside the Big House on Saturday for Michigan's 35-31 victory over ND. Updates include Zach Banner, Jordan Payton, Steven Elmer & Taco Charlton.

I love playing the Blue Bloods. A home and home would be amazing.
You might have to give us a couple years.. Otherwise it would be worse than the PSU/Bama home and home
But I've always wanted a good home and home - my choices were LSU or Texas. Just seems like something we won't see too much of anymore with the conference expansions and Big Ten playing 9 conference games

I wasn't able to sleep last night, and I still don't have a voice, but it was worth it (so was the price of admission).
It really was something special. I've never heard the Big House that loud, and I've never seen 60k fans stay put for a whole hour after the game. I honestly believe the "night game" elements of the game had to do with the atmosphere as much the tsunami that most of us sat through in the previous week.
Someone posted in our thread that his boss faintly heard the crowd in a town more than 17 miles away. This may sound far-fetched, but the stadium's bowl shape causes sound to travel upwards (and not remain in the stadium). As they continue to build up, more sound will be held in the stadium.
Future night games might compare, but I don't think Michigan Stadium will have an atmosphere like last night until the stadium expands to 125,000+ in a few years.

Structurally, we could do it because the stadium is dug so far into the ground. We'd have to move Crisler, re-route Stadium Blvrd and Main Street, and remodel the golf course, buy up the houses and businesses across the street and buy land from Pioneer High School. That's probably at least 75 years away (assuming college football is still this big).
