Michigan running back Blake Corum suited up for Saturday's game against Ohio State despite dealing with a knee injury.

Though he's in action, the halfback isn't expected to be at 100%, ESPN's Pete Thamel reports. Corum is sporting a knee brace on his left leg due to the ailment.

Corum suffered the injury during the first half of last week's 19-17 win over Illinois. He returned in the second half but only received one carry before exiting again. Head coach Jim Harbaugh said postgame that the running back's knee is "structurally good."

The junior has been a vital part of the Wolverines' offense this season. He's tallied 1,457 rushing yards and 18 scores. Corum has also recorded a receiving touchdown.

Both Michigan and Ohio State come into Saturday's game with an 11-0 record.
