Win and there is a good shot they make the NCS. Lose and it’s yet another failure against a top team.

Lex, your fixation on Harbaugh and crusade to denigrate his coaching is remarkable.
Do you think Michigan has much of a chance?  tOSU is on fire right now, and they have been spectacular for the entirety of Harbaugh's tenure at Michigan.  And they are 7.5 point favorites . . . at Michigan.  I think it far more likely that tOSU wins by 10+ points than Michigan pulls the upset.

Still, Michigan under Harbaugh gets 10 wins, in a much tougher conference, and a NY Day bowl (again).  
We're so far from that now it's not even funny.

Harbaugh will probably fail yet again to take what was once one of the premier college football programs in the USA to a conference title.
Harbaugh's record, at Michigan, against top 10 teams is AWFUL.
He actually is winning at a rate below the historic winning percentage of the program.

That noted to compare success at Michigan by any coach to success at Stanford for any coach is not particularly meaningful.

One program struggles to find 50,000 to fill the seats even when the team sports a top 5 ranking.
The other program can put 100,000 people in the stands during a driving snow storm or when the opponent is a weak FCS team.
One team has 15 conference titles in its history (3 with the current coach) the other has 42 conference titles (0 with its current coach).
One team claims 2 national titles, the other claims 11 national titles.

That noted I am not sure what the fixation Harbaugh is all about here.   He actually left Stanford.  While he was here consistently complained about the very things that will keep other coaches away or drive them to find a better gig after their first 8+ win season.
