In fact, if we were to leave a review of his overall performance, it would likely be labeled as “above average,” as McCord was good throughout more than 2.5 quarters of the game. But it was his two interceptions – the only two turnovers of the game – that proved costly and were the difference makers in Ohio State's loss against Michigan in Ann Arbor last Saturday, the Buckeyes' third straight loss to the Wolverines.
Whether it was nerves or just trying to find his rhythm, McCord struggled early on, completing just four of his 10 passes for 47 yards.
