Great game for Michigan . Although Harbaugh referring to the team as brave seems a bit shallow. 4yr old pee wee league kids play this game, it doesn't take bravery.

@scotter810 every time you take the field, step up to the starting line, or enter the competition it's an act of bravery. A mediocre participant always finishes ahead of someone who was afraid to start.

Sorry...high school coach here (not football), so forgive my sermon.

Also, fwiw, there's a kind of bravery in daring to achieve at an elite level that's hard for most of us mere mortals to understand. I don't fault him for calling his team brave, even if he meant it differently than I might.

@PoliPhiNosaur sorry, but I just see people risking their lives to rescue someone like fireman brave. risking your life for highschool or college sports seems a bit nutty.

@scotter810 certainly there are more kinds of bravery than simply risking ones life.

It takes real bravery for an addict to ask for help. It takes bravery to admit when we are wrong. It takes bravery to commit to a difficult, improbable goal. It takes bravery to commit your life to partnership with someone else. It takes bravery to risk rejection, ask that someone on a date the first time.

Surely bravery must exist on a spectrum, with greater and lesser acts of bravery.

@PoliPhiNosaur I see your point, my nephew played O-line for the bullafo college bulls, he could have probably went on pro but didn't want to risk his health. His little brother got rocked a few times at Grand valley State in Michigan and felt like he shouldn't play anymore. it's kind of personal to me
