A Rose Bowl classic unfolded in Pasadena on Monday night, with the University of Michigan coming back in the fourth quarter to tie things up against the University of Alabama and eventually win it in overtime. 

J.J. McCarthy, Michigan’s quarterback, was a catalyst in making that happen, as the team’s perfect season continues on to Houston for the College Football Playoff National Championship. 

After the game, Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh had high praise for his signal caller, going as far as to call him the greatest quarterback to wear the maize and blue for the Wolverines.

And let’s remember: Tom Brady played at Michigan before putting together arguably the greatest NFL career of all-time at the position. 

"I've said it before, but right here, this is the greatest quarterback in University of Michigan — college football history," Harbaugh told media members. "Got a long way to go to get where Tom Brady eventually got to, which is the GOAT.

"But in a college career there's been nobody at Michigan better than J.J. I know we talk about it an amalgamation of quarterbacks. He is that guy."

Harbaugh also added that the last person to defeat Alabama at quarterback in overtime was Brady prior to McCarthy leading the way.
