Michigan star tailback Blake Corum is expected to attempt to play against Ohio State on Saturday, sources told ESPN, as an air of ambiguity hangs over his potential effectiveness because of a knee injury.
Corum, one of the leading candidates for the Heisman Trophy, injured his knee late in the first half against Illinois last week. Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh called Corum's left knee "structurally good" following the Wolverines' 19-17 win, but Corum returned for only two plays in the second half before being pulled for the remainder of the game.
