Michigan-Hawaii preview: McCarthy gets his shot, Michigan reserves to watch closely and more

In this episode, Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz preview the Michigan football team’s game against Hawaii, looking at the quarterback situation, key reserves to potentially watch, the merits (and downside) of playing easy early season opponents and ultimately make their predictions for the game. They begin with a look at J.J. McCarthy’s starting quarterback opportunity, and how he should be measured on Saturday. They next look at which players not in Michigan’s two-deep may be the most interesting to watch on Saturday and why. The two then go back and forth on the pros and cons of super-early non-conference games over Power-Five foes.Finally, they take a look at some of the over-under expectations for Saturday’s game, revisit a couple subscriber questions about McCarthy and McNamara then close with their final score predictions for the game.
