Former Michigan defensive tackle Chris Wormley doesn’t get mentioned in this space very often, but he had one of his best career games on Sunday with 4 tackles and 1 sack in a 49-13 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Wormley and the Bengals are now 7-2.

HONORABLE MENTION

Visitors: Michigan vs. Michigan State

I will be adding tot his list throughout the week.

2020

Blake Corum – RB – Baltimore (MD) St. Frances: Corum is committed to Michigan (LINK).

Theo Johnson – TE – Windsor (Ontario) Holy Names: Johnson is a 6’6″, 242 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Georgia, Iowa, Michigan, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #3 tight end, and #95 overall. The crystal ball is 60% for Penn State and 40% undecided; it appears to me that if it’s not Penn State, it will be Michigan. This is his last official visit before announcing his decision on November 18.

James Pogorelc – OT – Chantilly (VA) Chantilly: Pogorelc is a 6’7″, 270 lb. prospect with offers from Michigan, North Carolina, Stanford, and Virginia, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #31 offensive tackle, and #369 overall. Right now his crystal ball is 100% for Stanford.

Roman Wilson – WR – Honolulu (HI) St. Louis: Wilson is committed to Michigan (LINK). This is his official visit.

Highlights: Illinois 37, Michigan State 34

One of the joys of being on one side of a rivalry is enjoying your opponent’s misery. Michigan State was up 28-3 on Illinois, and the Fighting Illini came back to win, 37-34. It was the largest comeback in Illinois history at the expense of guys wearing jerseys designed by a blindfolded 3-year-old.

Also, former Michigan QB Brandon Peters threw 3 touchdowns for the Illini.
