Michigan benches Underwood, starts Carr for Indiana after Penn State comeback
According to 247Sports, Michigan will start true freshman quarterback Tommy Carr in its upcoming game against Indiana on October 21, after benching true freshman Bryce Underwood at halftime of the Oct. 17 win over Penn State, and the coaching staff has not clarified Underwood’s role moving forward. The Wolverines rallied to defeat Penn State 21-18 on Oct.
17, a turnaround that began when head coach Jim Harbaugh replaced Underwood with Carr at halftime. Offensive coordinator Jason Beck said the change was needed to spark the offense and cut turnovers. Former NFL safety Eric Weddle later said he had predicted the benching after observing Underwood’s practice performance earlier in the year.
