Michigan QB McCarthy Leads Offense in Season Opener as Harbaugh Serves Suspension

Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy wore a "Free Harbaugh" shirt in support of suspended coach Jim Harbaugh.
McCarthy had an impressive performance, passing for 280 yards and 3 touchdowns in Michigan's 30-3 win over East Carolina.
Michigan players paid tribute to Harbaugh before the game by holding up four fingers on their first drive.
Harbaugh is serving a three-game suspension imposed by the school over alleged recruiting violations in 2020.
With Harbaugh absent, defensive coordinator Jesse Minter served as interim head coach for the game.
