Blake Corum makes Heisman statement with huge road outing in win over Iowa
Published:
Blake Corum – Michigan’s electric running back – has firmly entered the Heisman conversation.
Corum had a huge game last week in a victory over Maryland, finishing with 243 yards on 30 carries and 2 touchdowns. This week, against a good Iowa defense, Corum had another massive game, going for 133 yards on 29 carries.
Corum also added 1 TD against Iowa, and now leads the nation with 10 rushing TDs on the year. His touchdown against the Hawkeyes came late in the fourth with a brilliant cut in the hole to ice the Wolverine victory on the road.
Another one! 💪

Blake Corum leads CFB with 10 rushing TDs. Has hit the dagger for second straight week now. Deserves more #Heisman buzz than he’s getting for a top 5 team.

Corum now has 478 yards rushing this season to go with his 10 TDs. The 5-0 Wolverines and Corum will travel to Indiana next to take on the Hoosiers.
