Jim Harbaugh said Michigan “got extremely lucky” that Ohio State did not execute an apparent third-quarter fake punt attempt, saying “it would have been a huge gain.”
In the aftermath of Saturday’s loss to Michigan, one of the biggest questions Ryan Day received was why Ohio State did not go for it on 4th-and-5 at Michigan’s 43-yard line in the third quarter.
Jim Harbaugh revealed as much during his initial media availability of Big Ten Championship Game week on Sunday, as he and his staff discovered Ohio State was actually planning to run a fake punt.
“It’s not a question of coaching decision. They had decided – had it really wired to work. We had it wired to stop. We could have really stopped it. And then when they did snap it to their punter, we really should have blocked it.”
