They better smother and cover Quentin Johnson.

Well they get a chance, and in this crazy game thats all you can ask for.

Michigan got the stop they needed. They are going to have time.

[chemiclord]

I'll give Michigan this, it could have been easy for them to give up after everything went wrong for them in the first half. But they didn't, and somehow made this crazy game entertaining.

What's kinda scary is that this is still a fairly young team and they have a decent amount of depth. They could very well be back for a third year in a row.

Hats off to TCU. They exposed the Michigan D somehow .

[Fraquar]

You were saying about the CFB refs. See this is why no matter what they do they will never get it right.
They got 5 minutes to review a potential targeting call that by every definition of the rule is targeting - and they say no targeting.
Not the reason they lost, but at least call the game properly.

[Dan V]

The TD in the first half was a TD. He juggled it a little and didn't get possession until passing the goal line. (Dont fumble it on the ONE next play though)

Well, look on the bright side. We still have the Lions...

[CGVT]

Well, look on the bright side. We still have the Lions...

LOL. I ain't even mad. M losing a bowl game and the Lions not making the playoffs is the end of year/new year screenplay of our lives. Ha!

Pretty well.

Anyway, Happy New Year to all.

Obviously the problem is Harbaugh. You can't win with that guy.

If he is the coach, you will never win the Taco Bell, Summers' Eve, Preperation H - Banana Bowl.

I'm mad. These last two weeks have been hard to swallow. Last weekend the Lions get trounced, the Packers win, and the Rams win. This weekend UM losses and OSU losses. You heard that right. I cheer for Bid 10 teams always when the are playing other conferences. I wanted OSU to win. Ironic the first two Big 10 losses were the "biggies"

[dpatnod]

I'll admit I was rooting for the Bid 10 (Pfftttttt, <spit> Fuckeyes).

[Trickalicious]

FInally, Prep H comes in banana flavor! Dookies and Cream was getting old.

Then why were flirting elsewhere? My goodness. Just stop with the obvious lies...

Jim Harbaugh: My heart is at the University of Michigan

Jim Harbaugh’s flirtation with the NFL in 2022 ended with him returning to the University of Michigan and the same thing has happened in 2023.

Harbaugh interviewed with the Broncos last week, but University of Michigan president Santa Ono said in a tweet on Monday afternoon that he had just spoken to Harbaugh and that Harbaugh said he will be remaining with the Wolverines.

“I just got off the phone with Coach Harbaugh and Jim shared with me the great news that he is going to remain as the Head Coach of the Michigan Wolverines,” Ono said. “That is fantastic news that I have communicated to our Athletic Director Warde Manuel.”

Harbaugh released a statement of his own a short time later.

“I love the relationships that I have at Michigan — coaches, staff, families, administration, President Santa Ono and especially the player and their families,” Harbaugh said. “My heart is at the University of Michigan. I once heard a wise man say, “Don’t try to out-happy happy.” Go Blue!”

Ono said late last week that the school had “positive and constructive conversations” with Harbaugh about remaining in Ann Arbor. Those conversations presumably included discussion of adjustments to Harbaugh’s contract and it will be interesting to see if there is now a buyout in place that makes it less likely that Harbaugh will explore a move back to the NFL in 2024.
