'Props to Harbaugh' rain down, Ryan Day roasted after Michigan football beats Ohio State
No Blake Corum, no problem.
Michigan football on Saturday beat Ohio State, 45-23 in Columbus for the first time since 2000 and Twitter, understandably, was a madhouse.
Love for Jim Harbaugh, suspicions of Ryan Day, a little Ric Flair — it was all there on social media.
Without Corum, a Heisman candidate and one of the nation's top rushers, Michigan still piled up 252 rushing yards Saturday, thumping the rival Buckeyes. U-M hardly trailed after the first quarter, committed no turnovers and got three touchdown passes from J.J. McCarthy.

It's Harbaugh's second straight win over the Buckeyes and his team's second straight trip to the Big Ten title, where U-M will face one of the uninspiring teams that wins the West Division. Another College Football Playoff berth appears on the horizon as well.
For now, let's focus on The Game. What a game it was.
Michigan looked UNREAL today. Not scared of the moment at all. Props to Harbaugh.

One coach played not to lose and one coach played to win…#Harbaugh

J.J. McCarthy being mid as a passer this season was 3-D chess.
The plan? Have JJ McCarthy miss on deep balls all season to convince OSU’s safeties to play tight so we can throw bombs over the top. pic.twitter.com/zr6vlvTU3M

I need a documentary about Jim Harbaugh and Michigan that talks about what took so long for them to become good

I feel really bad for OSU's Stroud. The game has rattled him, and I really think his coaching staff let him down. They've tried to beat Michigan with gamesmanship - you don't beat a Jim Harbaugh team like that.

People not feeling Ohio State or Ryan Day. It's a dirty game.
I think the "loser might make the CFP anyway" suggestion for Michigan-Ohio State is done. Buckeyes don't need to be anywhere near the playoff.

I will say it again if Ryan Day loses this he deserves to be fired

I need Ryan Day arrested on fraud charges immediately after this game.

Michigan went into Columbus with its best player on the sideline and beat the Buckeyes by three touchdowns. Unbelievable.
