Harbaugh was asked about Michigan senior wide receiver Roman Wilson’s 29-yard touchdown catch that was pinned against a defender’s helmet against Nebraska. He said he had a partial view of it during the game but was able to watch multiple angles on film since then.

“That was incredible,” Harbaugh said. “It really kind of spurred the idea — we put when somebody makes a great play or player of the game kind of thing, we put a picture up in our team room, and now we’re gonna do a three in one collage, because that play just needs three different pictures to really show how good it was. And the second one he made was really great, too.

“Love the way he’s playing. He’s getting a lot of attention now, and he’s still winning, still finishing plays, blocking. Really happy with our perimeter blocking as a receiver group. As you can imagine, every position group played well [in Michigan’s win over Nebraska]. Particularly happy with the big catches, the tough catches, the catches across the middle, the contested catches, obviously, the circus catches, the blocking.

“Same with the tight ends. Talk about a group that’s really playing well. And [Michigan sophomore] Colston Loveland is sometimes getting double teamed out there. You can see the major attention on Colston. He’s so unselfish, continues to block great, gets other guys open. [Senior] AJ Barner is really stepping up, [junior] Max Bredeson had another great game.

“The backs played really well, ran really hard. All three — [Michigan senior] Blake [Corum], [junior] Dono[van Edwards] and [senior] Kalel [Mullings]. A completely unselfish group at a position where it’s hard to be unselfish. They continue to be.

“Same with the quarterback. Had one of his best games. He’s just so efficient in how he plays the game and what he does for our offense. He really makes it go. But also completely unselfish — just like everybody on our team; I could name every guy right now. But especially him — especially [Michigan junior] J.J. [McCarthy]. Some quarterbacks are throwing 4 to 6 touchdowns a game, but he’s just so locked in on winning and being efficient for the team and contributing for the team. It’s a beautiful thing.”
