Last season, the Michigan Wolverines defeated the Washington Huskies in one of the most incredible atmospheres at the Big House in recent memory — under the lights with 110,000+ people wearing only maize.
It was such a success that the program decided to host another Maize Out game for the upcoming season.
The athletics department confirmed this year’s Maize Out game will be against a Big Ten East foe — the Penn State Nittany Lions on Oct. 15.
It was widely speculated this year’s Maize Out would be between either Penn State or Michigan State, the latter of which is also rumored to be a night game.
