BTN will air 15 games during the first three weekends of the season, including Michigan vs. UMASS on 9/15, which makes Michigan's first three home games (Air Force, UMASS, Illinois) 3:30pm kickoffs. BTN Schedule | ESPN schedule | Michigan's Schedule. Michigan will not play a noon game until at least 10/20 vs. Michigan Agricultural College (TBD), and has three night games (Bama, ND, Nebraska) to deal with in their first 8 contests.

Brady Hoke says Michigan's top priority remains beating Ohio State. My top priority is that we beat Sparty...and it was my top priority last year.
Rittenburg/Bennett present Michigan's keys for 2012. Bennett has a face for radio and a voice presence for blogging, but the notes are good. Robinson's footwork, Defensive Line depth, and good health are highlighted.

MVictors profiles a UM memorabilia collector that is looking to move programs from every home game since 1975 (233 in all) for $1165. I'm pretty sure the Godfather has all of those...and most of the away games. And yet I think he might be interested in this collection, because he is an addict.
Women's Football academy video...suddenly becomes important because it shows Devin Gardner wearing Roy Roundtree's old number (12), further fueling the rumors of his move to receiver.
