I hate it because Michigan has one of the the all time great fight songs.Why bring them? The only time they're going to have something to play about is when they come onto the field pregrame. After that, ain't gonna be much to blow their horns about.
Yes, I hold a grudge with Minnesota as well. Somewhere along the way we will play them again.The only big 10 band I recall (from games I attended) is Minnesota. I assume Michigan's band has more class than the Minnesota band (yes I hold a grudge) so I'm sorry Michigan's band isn't coming. I don't remember if Michigan State's band came to the Capital One Bowl or not, so I guess they didn't try to insult Alabama.
I was wondering if it was a backhanded way of getting more money for the band. Hopefully they wouldn't do that but who knows.It is still early; plenty of time left to reverse the decision. The Michigan alums have deep pockets and I would not be surprised to see the funding become available for the band.
But what snowbirds will also give up their tickets?It is still early; plenty of time left to reverse the decision. The Michigan alums have deep pockets and I would not be surprised to see the funding become available for the band.
