The 67th meeting as conference foes (and 113th all time) will see the Michigan State Spartans take on the Michigan Wolverines in Ann Arbor at noon after FOX selected the game for its “Big Noon Saturday” broadcast.
The network began featuring premier games of the week last season for the first time as a noon kickoff, instead of primetime games. This is also the second straight season the rivalry between the two Great Lakes states has been tabbed for the “Big Noon Saturday” feature, is the third straight noon kickoff in the series, and contrasts greatly with the 2017 first-ever (and only to date) primetime matchup in Ann Arbor.
