“Like all year, our defense played lights out all game,” McCarthy said. “We got a slow start out of the gate, but we came back in the second half and showed up. Our game plan this week helped out a lot. It’s good to get a win and go on to the second season. We’re going to give it our all every week. It’s going to be a hell of a ride.”

While helping his team prepare for a win or go home situation is at the top of mind, McCarthy is continuing to embrace the leadership role in Michigan’s 2021 recruiting class.
