Jim Harbaugh recently gushed about his running back room.

Blake Corum has been one of the best RBs in the nation, and Donovan Edwards has looked electric since returning from injury. Harbaugh stated that Edwards has “quarterback” energy and Corum has “laser-like” ability when reading a defense.

Harbaugh points out that the backs are just as important in the locker room as they are on the field, pointing out their leadership.

In a dominating win over Penn State, Corum collected 166 rushing yards and Edwards had 173. Both backs ended with 2 TDs on the day to top it off.

Michigan will take on conference-foe Michigan State in Week 9 after a bye week.
