Michigan RB Blake Corum misses cut as finalist for Heisman Trophy

Michigan Wolverines running back Blake Corum missed the cut as one of the four finalists for the Heisman Trophy.

It was all quarterbacks announced as finalists for the award during ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown show — USC’s Caleb Williams, Ohio State’s CJ Stroud, Georgia’s Stetson Bennett and TCU’s Max Duggan.

In the first 10 games for the Wolverines, Corum led one of the nation’s most potent rushing attacks — racking up 1,349 yards and 17 touchdowns on 5.9 yards per carry. Though he added another 108 yards and a touchdown against the Illinois Fighting Illini, Corum suffered a devastating knee injury shortly before halftime.
