It was everything we thought it would be except for the outcome we hoped for. The launch of the Jim Harbaugh era featured power running, lots of tight ends, and hard-nosed defense, but also turnovers, missed tackles, missed holes, and overthrows that resulted in a 24-17 loss to Utah on Thursday night.

Utah took the first possession of the game and marched down the field before stalling at the Michigan 12. Andy Phillips kicked a 29-yard field goal to put the first point on the board.
