Dave Brandon has gotten the approved funding to redesign Michigan Stadiums Football Field. Some may not like the sponsors on the field but Dave Brandon believes it will bring Michigan up to date with the rest of college football and will keep the ticket prices at a low price of $95.

Everyone else has sponsors, why shouldn't we? It brings in revenue so we can keep ticket prices lower.

The field will also sport NOT the schools twitter tag but the Dave Brandon's Twitter account.

We felt the more followers I can get the better the Michigan Brand can be.

Dave also commented on the parts of the field that have been sold off to sponsors.

I proud to say that Arby's came the strongest with sponsorship and will be put at the 50. We some how hope to incorporate the Arby cowboy hat with the Block M. The endzones will be Dunkin' Donuts and the other will be Summers Eve Hail  to the V. We felt that we need a ladies presence as one of our core sponsors. The 25 yards lines will also be special as they will be sponsored by Sex Panther Cologne and Cyberdyne Systems Corporation . Then our other sponsorship around the field will be Pizza Plant, S-Smart, I got worms, Spatula City and Holly Star Bowling Lanes. This is a exciting time for the Michigan Brand and we hope to maybe add some more sponsors in the future. Maybe a special sponsor patch on the uniforms. 

Well, the rumor floating around for the last day or so has come true. Night games are coming to Ann Arbor in 2011, with Michigan facing Notre Dame at 8 PM on September 10.
Link?
Link.

I cannot stress how much of a step forward this is for Michigan football. Michigan has finally joined the rest of the country in having night games, which are a completely different culture compared to day games.

As for the stadium update, there are no pictures this time, owing to the short time lapse between the last update and this one. The only note of importance is that S. Main St. has lost one lane and that the western side is now gaining its facade. Bricks will start to go up shortly.

So I went for a walk due to the nice weather and decided to take pictures of the stadium construction so people can see how it's going. Here are 3 pictures of the stadium exterior plus one of Pioneer High School's construction and the Campus Skyline.

As a side note, during my time around the stadium, a plane was circling overhead. I would be willing to bet that MGoBlue will have aerial photographs up sometime soon and that they were the ones using the plane.
