J.J. McCarthy - Doesn't score in big winMcCarthy completed 24 of 37 passes for 335 yards during Saturday's 41-13 victory against Purdue.ImpactMcCarthy did log a score either through the air on the ground for the first time this season. The 6-foot-3 junior did log season highs in passing attempts and yards, but the Wolverines opted to hand it off to running back Blake Corum in goal-line situations, as he logged three rushing touchdowns of three yards or less. McCarthy hasn't had the biggest workload as a passer, but he's been the Big Ten's most efficient quarterback with 10.4 yards per attempt. He and the Michigan offense may need to rely on a run-first game plan while facing Penn State's impressive defense this coming Saturday.
