What Jim Harbaugh said after Michigan's impressive win over Nebraska
Michigan had no trouble in its B1G opener against Nebraska, pummeling the Huskers in Ann Arbor 56-10. With the win, the Wolverines improve to 3-1 on the year and 1-0 in league play.
From start to finish, the Wolverines pounded the football on the ground, taking advantage of a weak Nebraska front. Karan Higdon racked up over 100 yards rushing on his first three attempts of the game.
The running game has been a huge strength of the offense this season and it’s gotten better each week. The defense continues to be stingy, allowing just one Nebraska touchdown at the end of the game.
Here’s what head coach Jim Harbaugh said after an impressive win to open B1G play:

#Wolverines Harbaugh “We kept Chris Evans out…didn’t feel like he was ready to go.”

Harbaugh says no setback for Evans, but just wasn't ready to go. Said it was nice to see the backups get work. Would have liked to have played Haskins too.
