It Sounds Like Jim Harbaugh's Blaming Refs For His Team Blowing 16-Point Lead

In typical Jim Harbaugh and Michigan Man fashion, the whiner is now blaming the refs for his team blowing a 16-point lead Saturday against Michigan State. Now 3-9 as a head coach against Ohio State and Michigan, Harbaugh went on 97.1 The Ticket in Detroit to explain what happened against the hated in-state rival.

Harbaugh, asked to explain what changed the momentum to the Michigan State sideline, the coach said that there were momentum swings, but adds there "were some huge things that went against us."

"The obvious one: the calls," Harbaugh quickly notes. "You don't make excuses, but, I mean, the guys deserve better."

A translation here is unnecessary. Read what he said. Listen to him. He's blaming the refs for shifting momentum and costing his team a 16-point lead.










Harbaugh began his appearance on 97.1, recorded Monday, by saying he "woke up this morning and the grieving over" before noting that "it's a new day. A new week. New four-game season and we're up and at it."

And it's not just Jim who rambled on about the refs. Monday, Michigan DE Mike Morris walked up to the podium and began echoing his head coach.

Another loss for Harbaugh, another week straight of continuous whining out of the program and its Walmart Wolverine fanbase.
