On one play, all of Ohio State’s fortunes turned.
No, we’re not discussing The Spot, though it’s all Jim Harbaugh wants to talk about (the Spot was good, btw). The Wolverines’ coach didn’t display the grace you’d expect from a prestigious Michigan Man after Ohio State’s 30-27 instant-classic triumph in double overtime. Instead, he singularly whined about officiating, most notably focusing on the referee’s spot on J.T. Barrett’s 4th-and-1 run on the game’s penultimate play.
Michigan fans have responded in kind, flooding the internet with screen grabs and conspiracy theories that would make even Donald Trump and Jill Stein blush.
