After beating Ohio State for the first time in his coaching career, Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh used his postgame press conference as an opportunity to take a shot at his counterpart, Ryan Day.

“Sometimes people that are standing on third base think they hit a triple, but they didn't,” Harbaugh said after the Wolverines’ 42-27 win over the Buckeyes.

That, of course, is a reference to Day taking over for former head coach Urban Meyer following the 2018 season.

Meyer went 7-0 against Michigan as Ohio State’s head coach, while Day just fell to 1-1 after the 2020 meeting was cancelled due to a coronavirus outbreak within the Wolverines’ program.

With the win, Harbaugh improved to 1-5 against the Buckeyes during his time in Ann Arbor.
