Young Michigan fan believed to be Jim Harbaugh's son devastated by Wisconsin TD
Wisconsin reeled off a 50-yard punt return touchdown to open the scoring Saturday against Michigan.
One young Michigan fan took it really hard.
Poor little guy.
The reaction was so authentic, so we had to tweet out a screenshot of the youngster. We’ve all felt that way when our team gives up a big play.

But apparently this youngster is especially close to the Wolverines. According to Kyle Rowland, the Michigan beat writer for the Toledo Blade, he is none other than the young son of Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh.
This is Jim Harbaugh's son. Poor little guy. His friends will remember this when he's a teenager. https://t.co/WAwuVsSSiV

Harbaugh is certainly one to show his emotions on the sideline, so it’s not surprising the younger Harbaugh wears his heart on his sleeve.
Oh, and for the record, it was a really nice punt return.
