Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh was predictably callous after losing to Ohio State in a game featuring several 50-50 calls going against the Wolverines. Some highlights include:
Harbaugh: "I thought there were some outrageous calls, including the one that would have ended the game."

"Harbaugh: That wasn't a first down. I'm bitterly disappointed with the officiating today.

Official told Jim Harbaugh unsportsmanlike penalty “would have been technical (foul) in basketball.” Harbaugh: “Well, this isn’t basketball"

Anyone even slightly familiar with Harbaugh shouldn’t be surprised by his comments. It did seem like Ohio State got the better side of the whistles today, as many home teams do.
Whether post-game complaints are admirable or reek of sour grapes is an individual decision.
