The Big Ten announced Monday that the game between Michigan and Michigan State from Spartan Stadium will be a noon kickoff on ESPN.
Instead of carrying one of the best rivalries in the nation, ABC opted to show the Ohio State/Illinois game at 3:30PM ET.
#12 Michigan takes to the road for the first time this weekend when they head to Evanston to take on Northwestern. Meanwhile after their 10-7 victory in Columbus, Michigan State will get an extra week to prepare for the October 15th matchup against the Wolverines.
Michigan State will attempt to beat Michigan for the fourth straight time, something that hasn’t happened since 1959-62.
