Florida’s underhanded methods result in trick-play Citrus Bowl touchdown

Harbaugh shook hands and posed for dozens of pictures. His five-catch, 75-yard day gave him 678 yards on the season.

If years in coaching tenures were like films in a series, the first installment from Jim Harbaugh at MI was an overall strong return to form for a proud franchise.

Zack Oliver and Clayton Thornson combined to complete 14-of-33 throws for 129 yards with no scores and four interceptions. NOTES: RB Jalen Hurd became the first player in Tennessee history to rush for 100 yards in two bowl games .

WHOOPS: Florida squandered its first chance to take a lead less than five minutes into the game, when Gators holder Johnny Townsend was unable to hold onto the ball as the Gators attempted a fake on a field-goal attempt.

MI and Florida both entered the 2015 season hoping to revive storied programs that had begun to look more pedestrian than they were accustomed to.

“I would think he would be disappointed [with his final performance]”, said teammate and fellow All-SEC cornerback Jalen Tabor. “We should have probably just gone for it there rather than tried the shovel pass”. It’s the team’s best season since winning the Sugar Bowl in 2011. But consider that before Friday, the Wolverines had reached that plateau only twice since 2003.

McCaffrey finished second behind Alabama’s Derrick Henry in the Heisman voting, but the speedy sophomore left no doubt about his brilliance with one of the most dynamic performances in the 102-game history of the Rose Bowl. “Our last two games are unacceptable with how we’ve played on offense and we want to show the nation, the country, and (future recruits), we’re going to win this game and show what the Florida Gators are about”.

The emotion and energy on defense seemed to drain after quarterback Treon Harris threw an interception in the end zone late in the first half with the Wolverines leading 14-7. “I mean, Clemson has a shot at it, obviously, when they play in the national championship game, but just striving for that 15-0 mark is going to propel us”.

That had to sound like music to Harbaugh’s ears.

Friday’s Citrus Bowl was a manifestation of all of the work that was put in throughout the season and everything finally materialized into what Michigan Football is expected to be. That’s saying a lot for a guy who played in the National Football League, coached in a Super Bowl and won an Orange Bowl at Stanford.

What a difference a year makes.

In a game billed as a battle of two of the top defenses in the Big Ten and Southeastern Conference, the Wolverines’ offense shined bright in their first bowl victory since 2012. They did a great job for me. “They’re on the Michigan Man list. But this team, this team acquitted themselves very well”. Hats off to them for a great effort in the Citrus Bowl. The Gators drove 55 yards in 10 plays.

The Wolverines will have to replace some valuable players. One of the big questions for Darboh will be how healthy is QB Jake Rudock.

“He was darn near flawless”, Harbaugh said of Rudock. “I mean, darned near flawless”. For Michigan fans, though, this was a lovely day.

“This was the best game we played all year”, Harbaugh said.

“He’s worked his tail off”, McElwain said Thursday. You’d be wrong. This is Jim Harbaugh we’re talking about. “That’s what it was”, said McElwain, who only briefly discussed his team’s potential complacency and lack passion to play in the contest. Since Grier’s suspension, the Gators are averaging just 17.8 points and 299.2 yards of total offense per game. Before he headed off into the MI locker room, he had a message for the group. The Gators were embarrassed by the Wolverines with a final score of 41-7, and sent the team’s seniors off in a way that none of them had envisioned.
