J.J. McCarthy was showing off his arm in the first half and found Roman Wilson for his second touchdown of the season
East Carolina stuffing the run but has no chance against the pass. JJ McCarthy is 12 for-13 for 147 yards and two touchdowns to Roman Wilson. Pinpoint accuracy and evasiveness. Usual caveat: It's East Carolina. Wolverines lead 20-0.
