Michigan's Kyle Whittingham won't say if Bryce Underwood or Tommy Carr will start vs. No. 6 Indiana
Kyle Whittingham says Michigan has chosen a starter, but he will not reveal whether Bryce Underwood or Tommy Carr will face Indiana.
- On Monday, Michigan head coach Kyle Whittingham announced he has decided on a starting quarterback for Saturday's game against Indiana, though he declined to name the player, stating he has "a good plan in place" to maintain competitive advantage.
- The decision follows last Saturday's 21-18 win over Penn State, where Whittingham benched sophomore Bryce Underwood at halftime after he threw two interceptions, prompting the staff to insert freshman Tommy Carr.

- Michigan now prepares for Saturday's matchup against Indiana, a critical test as the 4-2 Wolverines attempt to salvage their season against a Hoosiers team ranked among the best in the Big Ten defensively.
