UM: Night Football

In a post on his blog, University of Michigan athletics director Dave Brandon writes about his expectations and hopes for Saturday’s “Under the Lights” event – the university’s first night football game, to be played against Notre Dame: ”We are on national stage and that is why we are working to make this weekend a showcase for the future. A great weekend will allow us to have more of these ‘wow’ events. This type of high-profile event at the Big House will not only help promote U-M, but it helps our local economy in a very measurable way.” [Source]
