Hey, What Are You Doing in 2012?

College Football

Want to play a football game then, and then nineteen more years after?

Michigan and Notre Dame have agreed to play each other in each season until 2031. The current contract was to run out in 2011, but no worries.

Hey, I see why MIchigan does this, it’s been a guaranteed win for a long time that most observers overvalue. It’s great for your BCS coefficient when you beat a team that people assume should be good just because they have freshly painted golden helmets each week. Only a true elite program would go to that kind of effort.

Seriously, though, the two schools are the winningest all-time programs and this match-up is good for college football. I kid because I care. And by care I mean “hate Notre Dame.”
