HARBAUGH'S DEBUT BY THE NUMBERS 2-1 Jim Harbaugh's career record in bowl games, including two straight wins, after leading the Wolverines to a Citrus Bowl victory. 3 Michigan head coaches to win 10 or more games in their first year, with Har- baugh joining Fielding H. Yost (1901) and Brady Hoke (2011). 3 Consecutive shutouts Harbaugh led the Maize and Blue to — over BYU, Mary- land and Northwestern — marking the first time U-M has had three straight since 1980. 4 10-win seasons in Harbaugh's eight years coaching college football with the University of San Diego (2004-06), Stanford (2007-10) and Michigan (2015): 2005 (11-1), 2006 (11-1), 2010 (12-1) and 2015 (10-3). 11 & 12 Final ranking he guided U-M to in the Coaches and Associated Press polls, the highest end-of-the-year marks for the Maize and Blue since finishing ninth and 12th in the two polls in 2011. 34 Point margin of victory in the Wolverines' 41-7 bowl win over Florida, the greatest post- season difference since Michigan beat NC State 42-7 (35 points) during the 1993 cam- paign. 3,017 Yards passing for grad-senior JAKE RUDOCK under Harbaugh's coach- ing, becoming only the second QB in U-M history to throw for 3,000 yards (John Navarre, 2003).
