Jim Harbaugh was asked if he was unhappy with the officiating today: "Yeah, you could say that." Said the Bolden call was "hard to fathom."

Harbaugh clearly frustrated with the referees. Bolden ejection “hard to fathom” and “one of many” poor calls.

Harbaugh says he didn't get full explanation on Bolden ejection, "was pushed in the back," doesn't sound like he agrees about this

Other than the horrible ejection, everything was pro Michigan

The officiating sucked, for sure, but it sucked equally for both teams imo.

Did he spend any time explaining his decision to punt in the situation at the end of the game?

The ejection was the worst officiating call of the year so far.

The decision to rugby punt at the end of the game was the worst coaching decision of the year so far.

Why would he?

Don't agree with the complaints on the penalties. Refs tried to give Ann Arbor the game, and almost did.

Is he frustrated with his punter?

It was a really unique circumstance with time & score...I would have made the same call in that situation.

Harbaugh is an arse. frick him. He's looking for excuse to mask the greatest bed wetting since the Pick Six at Auburn.

There was nothing wrong with the punt call at the end.

The freaking punter blew it. A 1 in a 100 deal.

How in hell was Harbaugh supposed to expect that?

Yeah, the touchdown where they didn't blow the whistle for what felt like 30 seconds when there was no forward progress till the end. Crazy.

He is able to form a coherent sentence, so it is apparent that he isn't stupid enough to do anything other than punt in that situation, so no question was needed.

I would think losing your captain and leading tackler would affect the game more than a call.

There has to be some kind of consequences for the ref in the booth that confirmed this call.

The player needs to be reinstated for the next game (not sure if there's a suspension), and this ejection nonsense for "targeting" needs to go right now.

ESPN highlights have it pretty well covered if you want to see the "targeting."
