Michigan star running back and Heisman hopeful Blake Corum left Saturday’s game after appearing to suffer a left knee injury in the first half
star running back Blake Corum left Saturday’s game against Illinois after appearing to suffer a left knee injury late in the first half of the contest.
The injury occurred as Corum, a Heisman hopeful, scurried his way upfield to the first down marker. As he neared the line to gain, an Illinois defender tackled him at the knees, sending the junior ballcarrier to the ground and jarring the ball loose. After Corum came to a rest on the field, he immediately grabbed at his left knee, prompting members of the Michigan training staff to rush out to attend to him. Corum appeared to be in significant pain while he lay on the ground.while flanked by trainers. Though he was able to walk on the sideline without assistance, he appeared hobbled as he made his way back to the locker room.
To add insult to injury, a review of the play resulted in a fumble recovered by Illinois. The play was the only blemish of the first half for Corum, who rushed 17 times for 103 yards and a touchdown.
