Scott Frost seems like a guy who could hold his own if things go sideways. But when asked if there’s a Big Ten head coach he wouldn’t want to fight, the Nebraska coach had a clear answer and detailed explanation.

It’s Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh.

“I’m just telling you, Jim was a professional athlete,” Frost said on the Bussin’ With The Boys show. “And he’s a little bit crazy. I love him, he’s a little bit crazy. He just strikes you as the type of guy who wouldn’t give up, no matter what, in a fight. But he’d probably enjoy that and I would too, in a friendly, competitive type.”

Frost also noted that they’re about the same size, but the Nebraska coach is younger.

“He’s a tough dude, got a lot of respect for him,” Frost said.

As coaches, Frost is still looking for his first win over Harbaugh and Michigan, as the Wolverines won in 2018 and 2021.

Frost and the Cornhuskers are trying to turn around the program this year after Nebraska is 15-29 in 4 seasons.
