Tommy Carr starts at QB and Bryce Underwood stands on sideline for Michigan against No. 6 Indiana
- On Saturday, Michigan freshman Tommy Carr takes his first start against Indiana in Ann Arbor, marking the beginning of what appears to be the 'Carr era' for the Wolverines.
- Coach Kyle Whittingham benched former starter Bryce Underwood after the quarterback threw two interceptions last week, bringing his season total to six turnovers against five touchdowns.
- Carr, the grandson of former coach Lloyd Carr and brother of Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr, starred at Saline High School and led three touchdown drives in last week's 21-18 victory over Penn State.
- Before today's kickoff, Underwood and Carr exchanged pleasantries during warmups in Ann Arbor. Indiana coach Curt Cignetti said he assumed Carr would start, though Whittingham had declined to announce his starter earlier this week.
- For the foreseeable future, the Wolverines appear poised to build on last week's momentum as Carr attempts to stabilize an offense that has struggled to find consistency this season.
