Isn’t Jim Harbaugh fired yet?
The guy lost a game. FIRE HIM … IT’S OVER … HE FAILED …
James Franklin and PJ Fleck are 0-2, Ed Orgeron has ordered the Gene Chizik special, and Mike Leach has been a disaster at Mississippi State so far, but Harbaugh’s team lost to a mediocre Michigan State team and now everyone wants him gone?
Okay, fine, whatever, but how has Harbaugh done in regular season games after a loss?
Last year, 52-0 over Rutgers after the Wisconsin blowout. After the Penn State loss? 45-14 over Notre Dame. In 2018 after the opening game loss to Notre Dame, 49-3 over Western Michigan.
How about after losing to Michigan State in 2017? 27-20 over Indiana.
How about after losing to Iowa in 2016? (By the way, it was a 14-13 loss on the road to the Hawkeyes on a walk-off field goal – the only loss before this last week to a team that didn’t finish with ten wins or more.) 20-10 over Indiana.
And now Michigan gets Indiana again after a loss, and the line is only 3.5.
This is an okay Indiana team, but the offense hasn’t rocked in the first two games and now it has a ticked off Michigan team to deal with.
The Wolverines were better than they showed against Michigan State, the passing game has been solid, and you never, ever, ever, ever, ever mess with a streak.
The last Indiana win over Michigan? 1987.
2009 and 1999 were the only times during the losing run that IU lost by fewer than four points.
