Michigan Football: 3 key takeaways from domination of Notre Dame
By Nick Popio
Harbaugh Made A Statement
The Wolverines couldn’t dream of a better scenario to happen against a top-10 program. They’ve been yearning for a notable victory like this for quite some time. The only thing better would have been to do this to the Irish in South Bend. Harbaugh can breathe a sigh of relief for now with a signature win to add to his resume.
After Notre Dame was able to get on the board thanks to a badly mistaken pass interference call, Harbaugh put his team’s foot down. That’s something he really hasn’t done in these type of big matchups. It will be interesting to see how they finish out the season with a confidence that is gaining steam over the last two weeks.
If I’m gonna kill Jim Harbaugh when they look bad...I’ve gotta give him credit tonight. This team was ready to play and they’ve kicked Notre Dame’s ass up & down the field in every possible way. Really impressive. Heck of a night.

The goal moving ahead is to build on this successful outing and win out. The Big Ten title will have to wait another year, but beating everyone left on the docket are the aspirations that remain.

By doing that Harbaugh can make his critics rethink their narratives towards him. The message has been sent to his players, now it’s just a matter of how they will respond to the final month of the regular season.
