Jim Harbaugh GIF Tournament 2016: Elite Eight
We have reached the Elite Eight of the first annual Jim Harbaugh GIF Tournament. The decisions, as you'd expect, are only getting more difficult.
Which insane Harbaugh grin do you like more? Is the genesis of the term "rage stripping" more worthy of advancing than perhaps the most purely Harbaugh moment of the year? Are we finally going to see a one-seed go down? Those questions and more will be answered in this here post by you, beloved readers. Godspeed.
THE GOOD TIMES
The Sweet Sixteen results:
#1 Harbaugh As Grinch: 1,542 (81%)
#4 Harbuagh/Drevno Awkward Celebration: 369 (19%)
#2 Spring Game Grin: 1,269 (70%)
#3 "You're Really Good": 550 (30%)
We have ourselves a grin-off.
(1) Harbaugh As Grinch vs. (2) Spring Game Grin
Do you prefer nefarious Harbaugh?
Or content Harbaugh?
(These may be essentially the same thing.)
THE BAD TIMES
The Sweet Sixteen results:
#1 Rage Stripping: 1,326 (77%)
#4 Rage On The Run: 404 (23%)
#2 Slow-Motion Meltdown: 759 (44%)
#3 WELL OKAY: 971 (56%)
The toughest region features a minor upset to set up another near-impossible choice in the regional final.
(1) Rage Stripping vs. (3) WELL OKAY
Do you prefer Harbaugh in full "come at me, bro" form?
Or Harbaugh in, well...
After a Florida defender committed an obvious facemask on Amara Darboh, Harbaugh sprinted down the sideline screaming for a call, gesticulating the whole way.
You may note a brave player—by the arm sleeve, I believe it's Jabrill Peppers—tried to get Harbaugh's attention when he reached the offical. Harbaugh, too deep into rage mode to notice, proceeded to scream "HEY, THEN CALL IT. YOU CALLED IT? YOU CALLED IT? WELL, OKAY."
...full Harbaugh form?
HARBAUGH IN ACTION
The Sweet Sixteen results:
#1 Dr. Harbaugh: 1,009 (62%)
#5 Hype-Up Beating: 628 (38%)
#2 Punt Demo: 1,049 (65%)
#3 Harbaugh's Huddle: 566 (35%)
(1) Dr. Harbaugh vs. (2) Punt Demo
Do you prefer sophomoric physical humor?
Or other sophomoric physical humor?
MISCELLANEOUS HARBAUGH
The Sweet Sixteen results:
#1 Good Shit, Jedd: 848 (55%)
#4 Head Scratcher: 704 (45%)
#2 Snow Crabs?: 684 (42%)
#3 Pffffffhahahaha: 928 (58%)
"Good Shit, Jedd" continues to be on the shakiest ground of any one-seed because of the story vs. action dichotomy. Is this the round it goes down?
(1) Good Shit, Jedd vs. (3) Pffffffhahahaha
Do you prefer a great story?
Or a great face?
Voting will remain open until Tuesday, when we'll narrow this down to the Final Four.

I've voted.
But let it be known that I'm doing so in public protest because this idiot virtual family of ours didn't reward Harbaugh's Huddle with the votes it deserved last round.
We've become a loony board full of Las Vegas trips, WD -/+ votes, shitty hip-hop release posbangs, and Rutgers intrigue. I just don't know what has become of us. Just give a little looksee over at MGoBoard right now. This is why Santa doesn't deliver solid Christmas presents anymore. Because we don't deserve them.
We'll be okay. Give it a couple of months until fall camp starts. It's rough right now, but we have Rashan Gary in a winged helmet to look forward to. Everything will be just fine with this board in no time.

I think Harbaugh's Huddle is an amazing gif, too. The players get more and more fired up as it goes on. It's fantastic.
I've got to question some of the seeding. Punt Demo-Harbaugh's Huddle should have been a Final Four matchup.
my pick for overall best gif was the huddle.
I'm curious to see the outcome, but it will be wrong.
for the Final Four?
This should be a diary post.
I love this beautiful offseason GIF voting action. We need another bracket after this one to keep me from drowning in OTs. How about a hype vid bracket next?
I'm either a contrarian or just have very different taste from the majority of the mgocommunity. Many of my favorites went downn last round, and when Grinch beats Spring Game Grin, I'll shed another tear.

The huddle was my top choice but hard not to go for the grin the rest of the way. That grin just seems to sum it all up. The ups the downs and the amazing ride we are now on - all summed up by that grin.
I'm crushed that Snow Crabs didn't make it through.
harbaugh as grinch has to win the whole thing, right?
Spring Game Grin wins this round.

What's the Gonzaga of this Tournament?
/ Gifzaga
EUTM.
Also, good shit Jed and Spring Game smile should be in the finals. Hell with this. Now that I think about about it, all voting should be nullified a la General Fulgencio Batista and Dr Harbaugh should be in the finals with Spring Game.

That's my favorite one.
When this saga began, I thought it would end up Dr. Harbaugh vs Fingerlickin' Buttslap in an epic final. Shows what I know.
The grins are separated by 23 votes after over 2000 cast. There is still hope!
All the ones I voted for are losing :(
while I like goofy Harbaugh gifs as much as the next person this is a riduculous wates of front page space. I appreciate your hard work Ace but really? half a dozen front page articles rehashing these same gifs all the way down to a final matchup? These aren't actual interesting games you know.
While it's cute we have a lot of gifs after 1 year of Harbaugh, this series makes Draftaggedon look like a Citris-bowl-UFR.
...very much in the minority.
It's the offseason. I also just wrapped up writing ~15,000 words of opponent previews for HTTV over the last few weeks. I'm not going to apologize for coming up with a series of posts that don't require me to write too much, especially when the response has been overwhelmingly positive. There are plenty of other posts to read—for free!—if you don't like these.
I agree with you jabberwock.
Toughest matchup for me is rage stripping vs WELL OKAY
The purely visceral nature of that event carries the day. It was almost like the scene from Alien with the creature bursting out of the poor dude. It was awesome watching it and keeps getting better.
Ace, any time to pull together a Loser Bracket?
I'd just like to vote for Harbaugh huddle one more time.
Blows my mind that some posters gripe about the content that gets posted here - especially during a long offseason that feels like we've barely made a dent into. This is a nice addition that most people clearly enjoy - just look at the numbers of voters. Fall will be here in no time. Just enjoy the wave. 2016-2017 is going to be a special season

well okay is the cream of the crop, IYAM.
pffffthaha is the second best
The Grin Grinch tilt is epic. Stuff of legends.
I would have voted with the consenus... however at this point, I felt that I wanted to choose the best four that encapuslated all that is Harbaugh for that reason I ended up going against the grain on the last two....
The two grins were tied exactly at 1603 votes when I voted...that one will go down to the wire
Harbaugh As Grinch 50% 1,871
Spring Game Grin 50% 1,877

Late to the party, but the battle of the grins was at 2000-2001 for the spring game grin which is what i voted for.
Also how is punt demo winning by so much. That should at least be a closer race.
Haha, this tourney is awesome.
That needs to be the overall winner. Just for purpose and meaning alone. The first time all of us crazy Michigan fans got to see our dream coach come out there and coach his team, the sheer fact how happy he looks, and like someone else said just seems to say "I'm home".
