Don't look now, but Michigan is starting to look like a Jim Harbaugh football team.
Yes, the Wolverines' past two opponents haven't provided much of a measuring stick and Michigan's biggest tests of the season remain ahead. But in wins over Oregon State and UNLV—the first two of the Harbaugh era in Ann Arbor—the Wolverines have shown signs of some of the traits that have defined their new head coach's stints at San Diego, Stanford and in the NFL with the San Francisco 49ers.
Michigan has run the ball well (185 yards per game), seen improvement on its offensive line and while quarterback Jake Rudock has endured issues with turnovers, the Iowa transfer has done a good job spreading the ball around, completing passes to 12 different receivers in three games.
