ANN ARBOR, Mich. — J.J. McCarthy’s third start for Michigan football perhaps didn’t go quite as he would have liked. Still, the Wolverines won the game in his first-yet complete game in a maize and blue uniform.
His next test will be his toughest to date, as he’ll get the start on the road going up against a good, albeit unranked, Iowa team. PFF has Iowa rated as the best defense in the country, while Michigan has the No. 8 offense per the same ratings.
On Wednesday, Michigan football co-defensive coordinator Matt Weiss, who also oversees the quarterbacks, discussed what he’s seen from McCarthy thus far, the challenges Iowa presents, and much more.
Here is everything he had to say.
