What Jim Harbaugh said following Michigan's blowout win over SMU
Michigan is starting to find its groove heading into B1G play next weekend.
The Wolverines started sluggish against SMU in Saturday’s game, but a pick-six at the end of the first half ignited the team. They would roll to a 45-20 win with a big second half behind an accurate and electric Shea Patterson.
Michigan is now 2-1 on the season and will likely feel a little bit better heading into conference play following blowouts over Western Michigan and SMU. The offense is beginning to click while the defense remains solid under head coach Jim Harbaugh.
Here’s what Harbaugh had to say following the big win:
Harbaugh on Shea "He's making really good decisions." talked about how DPJ and Gentry helped him out.

Harbaugh on targeting call that ejected Hudson: "My though on that is … I don't know … are we going down that road? Are we going to review every play in the box? Running backs are going to go through their and lower their head and defenders are going to try to get lower."
