Jim Harbaugh watched as Michigan players planted the M flag at midfield, dead in the center of the block O at Ohio Stadium. As with any rivalry, to the winners go the bragging rights and the ability to do such a thing.
Some call it classless, especially from those in Columbus. Harbaugh spoke on the actions Sunday, saying it does nothing but add chapters to the bitter rivalry between the 2 programs.
He wants that flag in a museum.
Jim Harbaugh on if he is OK with his players planting flag at midfield: “I want to get that flag and put it in our museum.”

The rivalry has been around for 100 years. Not much will change from Michigan’s actions after the game Saturday.
On if it adds any more fuel to the rivalry: “I think there’s plenty of fuel to the rivalry. There are songs, I don’t give a damn about the whole state of Michigan. It’s all good. It’s been going on for over a century. It’s all good.”
