<p>Hey everyone, being the idiot I am I didn't read the fine print of the Season Ticket email and didn't see that at 5 PM, not midnight, the window to buy season tickets would expire. </p>
<p>Now that I can't do that, I was wondering what the best games of the year are to buy single tickets to? </p>
<p>Here's the schedule:
MGOBLUE.COM</a> - University of Michigan Official Athletic Site - Tickets</p>
<p>I'm guessing Central Michigan (since its the first game of the year), Minnesota (for homecoming), Ohio State (For obvious reasons even though the ticket is god awfully expensive), and maybe Notredame (?).</p>
<p>What are your opinions on this? Did you end up going to every home game as a freshman? </p>
<p>Also, does anyone know if there is any way for me to still be able to buy student season tickets (even at a higher cost)?</p>
<p>In order from most desirable (and most expensive) to least desirable (and least expensive)</p>
<p>Notre Dame
Ohio State
Nebraska
Minnesota
Indiana
Central Michigan
Akron</p>
<p>If you have to pay for an Akron ticket you have probably paid too much.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Either that or OP is a ■■■■■.</p>
<p>Notre dame over Ohio state? </p>
<p>Is the minnesota game more popular because of homecoming? And is Central Michigan worth it because its the first of the year (I don’t want to be the only awkward freshman with nothing to do because everyone else is at the game)?</p>
<p>The Big Ten Championship game obviously.</p>
<p>Notre Dame over OSU because it’s a night game. And a game being homecoming doesn’t really make the game experience any different.</p>
<p>Yeah, you’ll want to go to the first game. Fun to go with a group from your dorm.</p>
<p>Well if you have to ask…</p>
<p>Notre Dame because it is the last one in the Big House for the foreseeable future and because it in September and OSU is during Thanksgiving break.</p>
<p>Call the ticket office ASAP and you should still be able to buy tickets. My friend didn’t buy tickets until the first week of school in late August last year, was put on a waitlist, and got season tickets still.</p>
<p>Save yourself a couple hundred dollars and call them.</p>
<p>@SoccerWolfP I’m planning on calling them tomorrow, hopefully I will be able to find some way to get tickets. </p>
<p>Based on what you guys are saying I think I’m going to go Notre Dame, Central Michigan, and maybe one other cheap one. </p>
<p>How many games a year did you all end up going to? Did the novelty of going to pre game parties and attending games wear off after a while?</p>
<p>It’s not a novelty. And you should try to go to every game. It’s literally the only thing happening on Saturdays in the fall. Student tickets always come way down near gametime.</p>
<p>I’ve been to every game and I’ve never left early. </p>
<p>I don’t pre game though. I’m there to actually watch football. Not to be a loud annoying yelling drunk idiot</p>
<p>Going to the games is not a novelty and it never wears off. 62 days to go.</p>
<p>Pre-game parties don’t feel like a novelty either, because they are legitimately fun. Out of 7 games, there might be one where you just don’t feel like partying beforehand, but for the most part it’s a really good time and it’s something you’ll look forward to as the weekend approaches.</p>
<p>As far as rivalries go, OSU is the biggest. But I aree that in 2013, Notre Dame will be the biggest game because of the timing (at night, and good weather) and because of the fact that we will likely not host them in the foreseeable future. OSU is always huge, and Nebraska is also going to be interesting too. The remaining home games will be fun for the game-day atmosphere.</p>
<p>Nothing is bigger than OSU. Ever. Michigan-OSU is primal blood sport. Everything else is window dressing.</p>
<p>But good luck getting a ticket to that game or the Notre Dame game. There will be people looking to sell, but they’ll want your right arm and your first-born child. Nebraska should be a good game and may have post-season implications; tickets may be somewhat scarce because a lot of Cornhuskers fans will be buying what’s available, but nothing like the Notre Dame and OSU games. Tickets for the Minnesota game should be more plentiful.</p>
<p>“Nothing is bigger than OSU. Ever. Michigan-OSU is primal blood sport. Everything else is window dressing.”</p>
<p>I agree, but 2013 is an exception bclintonk. Given what ND has done, there is enough bad blood in the remaining two games to lift the rivalry to OSU heights. Obviously, the Michigan/OSU rivalry remains the most intense in all of college sport, but for the next two games, the Michigan/Notre Dame rivalry will come close. Secondly, the night game atmosphere will make the 2013 Notre Dame game special. Let me put it another way, for an incoming Freshman, there will only be one home game vs Notre Dame while there will be at least two vs OSU.</p>
<p>“There will be people looking to sell, but they’ll want your right arm and your first-born.”</p>
<p>As a southpaw, I would gladly give my right arm. I am not sure about my first-born though, he is kinda cute! ;)</p>
<p>I would dearly love Brandon to have someone go to the AD of ND just before the game begins and hand them a note that Michigan has opted out of next year’s game in South Bend.</p>
<p>That would be a horrible idea</p>
<p>^It’s what they did to us last year. Michigan fans would love him for it.</p>
