The Michigan Wolverines came away victorious in their matchup against Bowling Green, winning the primetime matchup by a score of 31-6. The score, however, is not a good indication of the team’s performance. The Wolverines were less than stellar in the win, with J.J. McCarthy having arguably his worst game in college.
The game was still competitive at halftime, with the Wolverines only leading 14-6. This brought up some questions about how much playing time the second- and third-stringers would get. With Michigan scoring 17 unanswered points in the third quarter, this opened the door to get some fresh faces onto the field.
