Two years ago today, the Michigan football program hit rock bottom following a 27-17 loss to previously winless Penn State. The loss moved the Wolverines to 2-4 on the year, and marked the first time in the history of Michigan Stadium (opened in 1927) the Wolverines did not win a single game at home.
After the game I wrote the following: “The team is broken and there is no trust between the players and coaches,” among other harsh, but fair criticisms. Head coach Jim Harbaugh seemed disinterested, players lacked focus and fans had run out of patience.
