Michigan football RB Blake Corum ties single-game touchdown record

Blake Corum ran his way into the Michigan football record books in Saturday afternoon's rout against Connecticut.

Midway through the third quarter the junior running back scored, for the fifth time Saturday, on an 11-yard run to put the Wolverines up by 45 points. Corum is just the third Michigan back to score five touchdowns in one game, tying Ron Johnson (1968) and Hassan Haskins in last year's 42-27 victory over Ohio State.

Corum got the scoring started just two minutes in, when he ran up the left sideline 20 yards for the touchdown.
