Takeaways from Michigan’s big win over Hawaii

No. 4 Michigan beat Hawaii 56-10 on Saturday night to improve to 2-0 on the season. Here are takeaways from the game.

J.J. McCarthy was phenomenal

McCarthy absolutely shredded Hawaii under the lights at Michigan Stadium. McCarthy was 11-of-12 for 229 yards with three touchdowns. McCarthy displayed stellar arm strength, quick decision making, and he did most of his damage operating from within the pocket.

Poised and darn near perfect on the day, it would be a surprise if McCarthy isn’t named Michigan’s starting quarterback moving forward. McCarthy did everything his coaches and teammates could have hoped for.
