New Bo and Woody? Harbaugh and Meyer prep for 1st showdown

There's no mistaking these two for Bo and Woody — yet.

But it's not for a lack of trying, at least not on Jim Harbaugh's side of the equation.

Days ahead of his coaching debut in the century-plus Michigan-Ohio State rivalry and his first head-to-head matchup with Urban Meyer, the Wolverines' new boss upped the emotional ante by making a surprise night-time visit to the grave of his mentor. With his father and 15-year-old daughter in tow, Harbaugh showed up unannounced for what has become a campus tradition in Ann Arbor, Michigan,, the week before the Ohio State game: a cemetery walk to honor several of the school's football legends.
