This was definitely an interesting choice for the Michigan Football Twitter account.
By now, everyone is well aware of the debacle that took place Saturday in Madison. There is no need in rehashing the intricacies of the 35-14 blowout at the hand of the Badgers, but a number of questions are swirling around the program as a result.
Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines plummeted to No. 20 in the recent AP Poll as a result of the blowout. Additionally, multiple former players have been vocal about concerns with the team and Harbaugh as the team continues to fall flat in big games.

Sunday evening, Michigan Football took to Twitter following a disappointing weekend. Surprisingly, it went with a simple “Trust” headline while saying “We’re in this together.”
Here it is:
Trust.

Needless to say, the response of fans was predictably negative. Trust in Harbaugh definitely seems to be waning in what began as a critical fifth year for the head coach:

Looks more like thumb war, which is very similar to the offense

Find some heart and show it on the field. Then we'll believe.
