Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy made the fifth start of his career in Michigan’s 31-10 win over Indiana, and it’s clear he’s getting more comfortable on the field.
McCarthy had a smooth 304 yards passing with three touchdowns and one interception. McCarthy was 28-of-36 on the day and really got cooking in the second half, going 15-of-18 for 175 with all three of his touchdown throws.
Blake Corum had a 50-yard run during Michigan’s first drive, but the Indiana defense started stacking the box to limit the ground game. McCarthy had to keep the chains moving for Michigan down the stretch, and he delivered.
