Jim Harbaugh discusses the 49-3 victory over Western Michigan, Saturday, Sept. 8, 2018 at Michigan Stadium. Nick Baumgardner, Freep
Mark this down. History was made — and stopped — Saturday afternoon at the Big House.
First the stop. Facing Western Michigan, under a milky white sky, Shea Patterson dropped back in the second quarter and heaved the ball 44 yards to the end zone, where it was caught by receiver Nico Collins.
Until that moment, it had been 364 days since a Michigan wide receiver caught a touchdown pass.
