Confident Michigan Wolverines, fueled by new vibe, 'Jump Around' and over Wisconsin Badgers

Jim Harbaugh was aware of the criticism his offense received after the first four games of the season for a lack of creativity in the play calling and relying too much on the run.

Michigan's offense averaged 290.8 yards on the ground compared to 164 passing yards per game and Harbaugh said it was a goal to change that going into the game against Wisconsin.

"Yeah, we threw the ball on the first play of the game. That's what we've been striving to be, balanced, throwing the ball and running the ball. Had a very similar approach this week and a team that has a really good run defense," Harbaugh said.
