Michigan football's Blake Corum suffered an apparent knee injury late in the first half against Illinois on Saturday in Ann Arbor.The Heisman Trophy contender took a handoff up the right side deep in Illini territory and was taken down near the right sideline where he immediately went to grab his left knee. His teammates immediately signaled for staffers to come check on the junior tailback as he stayed down for a few minutes on the sideline.

Corum eventually got up and walked off the field under his own power, but instead of returning to the sideline, he walked with staffers up the tunnel toward the Michigan locker room.
