Ann Arbor — Michigan running back Blake Corum is expected to have knee surgery and will miss the remainder of the postseason, a source confirmed to The Detroit News

Ian Rapoport of NFL.com was the first to report the news on Thursday.

Corum a junior, was in the Heisman Trophy hunt before he suffered an injury to his left knee just before the end of the first half against Illinois. He returned for one play in the second half then sat the rest of the game. He started last week’s game at Ohio State but left the game limping after his second carry of the game.
