Michigan Friday: 5 at 5:00

• Need Sugar Bowl Tickets? Michigan Wolverine fans can register for a chance to cheer on their favorite team live and in person at the Allstate^© Sugar Bowl^© by visiting the Allstate gazebo located at Good Time Charley’s in Ann Arbor this Saturday, Dec. 10.  Allstate will give away 10 pairs of tickets to see the Wolverines take on the Virginia Tech Hokies at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans on Jan. 3, 2012.
  As title sponsor of the Allstate^© Sugar Bowl^©, the ticket giveaways are Allstate’s way of rallying excitement among Michigan fans for the Wolverines’ second trip to the Sugar Bowl.
  Registration will be from 12 to 4 p.m. on Saturday. A pair of tickets will be raffled away every 25 minutes and fans must be present in order to win.

• Denard played with a staff infection during the season.  That explains the bandage on his arm during the year.  I'm glad it wasn't too serious.

• The Wolverines have their first bowl practice today and will practice this weekend as well.
• Yuri Wright has scheduled his visit to Michigan.  It's pay walled but I expect it to be January.  If you are wondering Yuri is projecting at Safety, which means Michigan is still in the market for one more CB as well.  
• Update from Brionte Dunn's visit from the Michigan coaches last night:  I heard his entire family was there, including 2012 Michigan commit Dymonte Thomas.  Big Al and Fred Jackson made the visit and I hear Brionte's mom also made a nice meal.  Let's hope this is good news going into his OSU visit this weekend.  Hoke can only do one in home visit, so they are probably waiting to do that one next week or soon after.
