Really?

Was David Brandon out of the office today?

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan football program will open the 2014 season with a match-up against Appalachian State University on Aug. 30 at Michigan Stadium. This will be the second meeting between the Wolverines and Mountaineers at Michigan Stadium.

"We look forward to facing Appalachian State again," said U-M Athletic Director Dave Brandon.
The only previous game in the series between Michigan and Appalachian State came in the 2007 season opener. The defending FCS champion Mountaineers stunned the Wolverines, 34-32, as ASU blocked a field goal attempt that could have won the game for Michigan at the end of regulation. It was the first-ever game broadcast by the Big Ten Network.
U-M has two remaining open dates on its schedule.

I guess not.  Maybe he was too busy at Domino's to remember the last time they played. 

This is a no win situation for Michigan.  There will be nothing but months of Michigan - App State highlights from 2007.   If Michigan wins 100-0 they will be running it up on the little guy that defeated them.  If it's a close game, God help us. 

Don't understand this move at all.   Did the MAC not pick up the phone?
