JJ McCarthy has perfect reaction to Michigan’s dominant ground performance vs. Penn State
Published:
J.J. McCarthy had a perfect response after another huge performance on the ground for Michigan.
McCarthy finished with only 145 passing yards and did not have a touchdown, but Michigan still dominated the game, winning 41-17. This was due to an explosive performance on the ground, with the team collecting 418 yards rushing.
J.J. McCarthy: “When you’re rushing for 400 yards against the number 10 team in the country, I’ll sit back and be a part of that ride every single game.” https://t.co/3vPwaHyg9M

McCarthy is content with playing second fiddle as long as his team keeps winning. Donovan Edwards put up 173 yards and Blake Corum put up 166 yards, both ending up with 2 TDs.
The performance was even more impressive when factoring in the fact that Penn State had a top-10 defense entering the game.
Michigan will now enter their bye week undefeated. In Week 9, the Wolverines will welcome the Spartans to Ann Arbor.
