“The Simpsons” are renowned for both making eerily accurate predictions and humorously addressing current events, and they didn’t shy away from poking fun at the Jim Harbaugh and Michigan cheating scandal.
In a recent episode of the long-standing sitcom, Bart Simpson took on the role of an instructor teaching “Intro to Cheating 101” at the “Jim Harbaugh Center for Competitive Imbalance.”
This playful jab was a direct reference to Michigan’s sign-stealing controversy.
Adding to the humor, Bart Simpson’s commentary during this segment elevated the comedic element. He quipped, “Students look to your left, look to your right. Those are the people you’ll be cheating off of.”

The entire episode, aptly titled “Do the Wrong Thing,” centered around sports-related cheating scandals.
While Jim Harbaugh has denied any knowledge of Michigan’s sign-stealing scheme, as the head of the football team, there’s an expectation that he should be aware of activities behind closed doors.
Harbaugh will be under the spotlight next Monday as Michigan faces Alabama in the Rose Bowl.
