McCarthy has been extremely efficient as the starting QB for the Wolverines in Week 3. McCarthy has completed just under 80% of his passes, while only throwing 2 INTs compared to 9 TDs.
This will be McCarthy’s 1st chance to start against Michigan State. McCarthy did enter the game in 2021, but only threw 4 passes in the loss.
Michigan will look to defeat Michigan State for the 1st time since 2019.
