Jim Harbaugh says Michigan 'very close' to hitting its stride on offense

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Jim Harbaugh insists Michigan is hitting its stride on offense, apparently seeing what observers outside the program are missing.

The Wolverines were held scoreless for the final three quarters of a 10-3 win over then-No. 14 Iowa and appeared to affirm doubts they can have success with the ball against quality opponents.

No. 16 Michigan (4-1, 2-1) may be able to put together an encouraging performance at Illinois (2-3, 0-1) on Saturday as it did in a 52-0 win over Rutgers last week, but ranked teams are awaiting on the second half of the regular season schedule to provided tougher tests.
