That’s what happens when I type on my phone at 0-dark-30, Michigan and Harvard played 8 times beginning in 1891. They were 4-4. Michigan lists national championships for 1902, 03 and 04, among many others, but I think it was known as “Championship of the West” back then and didn’t include the Ivy League.
By the way, Michigan considers its game against Ohio State to be “the game,” although in truth the Michigan State game is a bigger deal in much of the home state, especially since MSU has been beating up on old blue in recent years.
