SeptemAnn Arbor, MI, USA Michigan Wolverines quarterback Denard Robinson (16) runs the ball against the Air Force Falcons at Michigan Stadium. Here are the past 22 1,000-yard rushing seasons that Michigan football has had. Corum was just shy of 1,000 yards in 2021 while splitting carries with Hassan Haskins and he even missed a few games with an injury. With the 2022 season coming quickly, Michigan should see another running back hit the 1000-yard mark with the duo of Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards on the roster.

Michigan has only had a few 1,000-yard seasons in recent years, but the maize and blue sure had some big-time backs in the early 2000s and 1990s. The Wolverines have had a ton of really good running backs in school history, and you will see that multiple backs, and a quarterback, had really good seasons while wearing the winged helmet. Our friends at Auburn Wire gave us a good idea after they listed the past 26 1,000 yard seasons.īut to honor the upcoming 2022 college football season, we are going to list the past 22 1,000-yard rushing seasons from the Michigan football history book.
