Oh boy, does Michigan Football seem fun again!!! Three straight shutouts, and 2 over ranked opponents to boot. 1995 was the last time this happened at the FBS level and Michigan last did this in 1980. Dig even further to find that only 4 other times in NCAA D-1 History has a team shutout 2 AP-ranked opponents by 28-0 or more scores. And in thee of those four previous seasons, the victorious team won the National Championship, including the 1948 Wolverines.
As much as I love this defense and the level at which they are playing it is hard for me to see MSU becoming the 3rd AP-ranked shutout victim. But that would be AWESOME!
But I digress, this space is meant to talk about our TAILGATE and the menu that is on tap for our Little Brother’s visit this weekend!
The football game will begin at 3:30 PM, our tailgate will “open” for breakfast around 8:30 AM (please make sure to indicate on sign up sheet if you are coming this early). This week the theme is “Show and Tell.” After our outstanding annual Italian Beef sandwich tailgate last week we heard a lot of talk about your favorite sandwich fixings. You’ve told us, so now SHOW US your best sandwich. Bring out your best pulled pork, sloppy joes, bbq chicken, tuna salad, spam or whatever sandwich fillings you can think up that would make Homer Simpson or Al Bundy jealous! There may even be another visit from the Italian Beef. We’ll fire back up the grill post game as well for burgers and hot dogs.
We are expecting a large turnout of this game and tailgate. So PLEASE make sure to sign up early for your entry into the Sandwich Fixings Show & Tell Tailgate. Please CLICK HERE for access to our sign up sheet.
See you Saturday, GO BLUE!
A few people have asked if they are required to do the $10 for main course similar to the beef last week. This is not the case. As we put in the text, the option to contribute so we have main course items is available, but you do not need to do that to eat. Feel free to adjust your signup as always.
