One tweet that cracked me up

People are eating @ChickfilA sandwiches without pickles here in the Citrus Bowl press box. That's all you need to know.

The one thing that gives me the red ass is I watch these other teams and they come out playing like their hair is on fire. It might take them some time to get warmed up or woke up. Michigan on many occasions seem so ho hum.

This isn't going to help your feelings any

Jim Harbaugh has lost bowl games in 4 consecutive seasons, tied w/Lloyd Carr for 2nd most (2003-06) in Michigan history & one shy of school record of 5 consecutive bowl losses by Bo Schembechler (1975-79)

 

[DeafOranguntan]

Harbaugh's a coaching genius. 2-4 vs. ranked teams this year. 1-4 in bowl games (4 straight losses). And 0-5 vs. Ohio State.

To be fair, 2-4 against ranked competition is trending upwards compared to his past years. Harbaugh just needs to get his players in there. Then he'll show you guys why he's the best football hire in recent history. Give him a nice fat extension.

On the bright side the last 3 bowl losses have been South Carolina, Florida and Alabama in that order so they're progressively improving on the quality of loss

Jim Harbaugh has lost the last 2 games of the season the last 4 years in a row and is 1-9 in the last 2 games of the season in his 5 years at his alma mater.

Pleeeze, deer lowered, #contract_for_life.

Ryan day is winless in the post season

Yes.

Fuck Michigan and Harbaugh.

Michigan was tough today, just too much Juedy. Great fan interaction too. I had a blast!

Um, no, he isn't. The B1G CCG is "the post season".

Since you've never been there, your ignorance can be forgiven, however.

Jeudi is Thursday in French.

This afternoon was Thursday in Manila.

Coincidence?

I've been hearing that all JH needs is his recruits for years from some UofM fans. Well his 1st recruiting class was in 2016. Here's the unmatched legacy of that 1st class.

27-14 record (.659)
0-4 bowl record
6-11 vs. ranked opponents (.353)
0-4 vs. Ohio State
no division titles
no conference crowns

Harbaugh has all the hype & nothing to show for it.

Saban rubbed his nose in it a little today.

Najee Harris carried the ball 11 out of 12 plays on that last drive.

That’s a great season ending for khaki.

 

[Wamu]

Jotted down the wrong info. Jimmy Jam's 1st class didn't go 27-14. They went 37-14 (.726)

But you lost a playoff game ... Michigan has never lost a playoff game ...

 

[JuiceTheGator]

Well, I think Michigan played very well today. They certainly fared better than against Florida in their bowl last season...which was a 4-quarter pounding.

So, took the grandkid to the Star Wars movie during this game, so missed it.
Was Tua mentioned during the game?
