Jim Harbaugh was hired as the head coach of the Michigan Wolverines with very high expectations. Some might even call it unfair.
The Wolverines were 5-7 the year before Harbaugh took over. In three of his five seasons in control, Michigan has reached 10 wins. Some fans would say they’re content with that.
Others would disagree. Harbaugh came to Michigan with the expectation of bringing them to the height of a national powerhouse. After yesterday’s 35-16 loss to Alabama, some fans are wondering if he’s the right guy for the job.
Two Michigan traditions continued this season:
~ Way too much preseason hype. ✅
~ Lost last two games of the season. ✅@UMichFootball pic.twitter.com/R327yxq2hU

Harbaugh’s Wolverines have now dropped their last four bowl games. Speaking of big games, they’ve lost all five of their meetings against their biggest rival Ohio State under Harbaugh.
So this leads us to a big question: As of right now, what separates Michigan from the Alabama’s and Clemson’s of the world?
