It was terrible. How can you manage the end of a game like that? WTF? Running plays to burn your time, failing to call your T/O to give your offense time to score, fucking screens when you need 60 yards?
DefensI've minded coaches often don't take their timeouts on D because it never occurs to them they won't get the stop. The problem was FSU was already in position to tie the game even if you do get the stop. That means you need to call them either way. It was really bad. As an Iowa fan I've seen it 15 times in the last 5 years

And that's why it was terrible clock management. Should have 1:30 left down 1. Now you've got 36 seconds instead. That's on Harbaugh

Yeah, why burn clock there ? All it could possibly accomplish was to make the clock an issue for his offense if they needed it.

Harbaugh lost that game. Terrible clock management and terrible calls with 36 seconds left. A fucking screen are you kidding me? A screen that they've sniffed out all game? Sit the fuck down Harbaugh. That was embarrassing.

I thought it was the refs fault.

Awful timeout management. Just give me the fucking avatar Sunday. @jwolt92

Harbaugh leaving in 2 years tops. This is his best team he will hav
Meh, it was rather pointless for the UM HC to call those TOs, as a five-year-old could see it would have no impact on the final outcome.

You play and call the game until the last molecule of energy has been squeezed out of the time given.

Yes it was horrible. Then again Lewis choked as well. The special teams choked as well. They should have won this game. Speight and the interior offensive line are fucking horrible. Time to replace both.

If any of you have the espn app for your phone... the win probability they have might possibly be the dumbest thing ever.

After all the crowing by Michigan fans they drop 3 of the last 4 with no valid excuse.

Michigan keeps the streak of alive of not finishing in the top 5 since the turn of the century!

All kidding aside that was a hell of an ending. Props to both teams.
