Michigan’s leading man returns from exile this weekend as Jim Harbaugh will be back on the sidelines for the Wolverines’ game against Rutgers. His suspension has been discussed ad nauseum, so I don’t want to revisit it here. However, I’d like to play some revisionist history.
Had Jim Harbaugh been on the sidelines against ECU, UNLV and Bowling Green, what would have gone differently?
The Wolverines enter Big Ten play at 3-0. In all three contests, the Wolverines failed to cover the spread, for whatever that’s worth. Would the blowouts have been even bigger had Harbaugh been present?
