Higdon: first 200-yard game by a RB in a decade
Karan Higdon (now from Utica, MI) had a historic day today.
200 yards.
The last Wolverine back to have a 200 yard game was.............the current IU RBs coach.
October 6, 2007 against EMU. Hart had a 215 yard game on the day he became Michigan's all-time leading rusher.

He played great!

What's even more encouraging is that a lot of the yards were of his own making. The OT touchdown was 100% Higdon.

Giving you shit is some sort of weird pass-time for some of the other members. But I for one agree with MichiganMan14. And I would I would like to thank you for your part in bringing Jim Harbaugh home. If it wasn't for you bringing down Dave Brandon, there is no chance that JH would've come home. So thank you WD!

Only one man has had 200-yard rushing games since 2007. Denard had 5.
Higdon is our first 200-yard rusher overall since Denard at Purdue in 2012.

When he came here in 2015, his family moved up to Michigan from Florida.
They picked little ol Utica, MI. It's a pretty big deal. His younger brother stars for Utica HS and is gonna play college ball.
Utica is the only school in the UCS district to never produce a Michigan Football player. So it's just cool that he's from around here. I think that's the coolest thing ever.

That's a bit of a stretch.
He went to high school in Sarasota, FL and then moved to Ann Arbor. Just because someone's parents moved, doesn't make their 20 year old son "from" that city.

He's not even from Utica and didn't go to Utica.
He went to Ford II which is in Sterling Heights.

Even more amazing that he did it in a game where the passing game was as threatening as a blind kitten.
October 14th, 2017 at 5:12 PM ^
This analogy is an insult to blind kittens the world over.

Blind kittens throw up greasy hairballs in the hallway in the middle of the night and you slip on it after you take a piss and fracture your skull, sustaining a deep cerebral hematoma that kills you before you regain consciousness.

Kept improving as the game progressed, which is what the best backs do. In OT, when banged up and tired, he showed the awareness great backs possess when the play blew up in his face, he bought time and made decisions, and then flew into the endzone. Higdon is only a sophomore. If he remains healthy I can see amazing production by this kid provided the coaches let him carry enough per game.

Junior*, i believe.
October 14th, 2017 at 5:09 PM ^
Admit. I'd thought so but looked it up and the official roster had him listed as a sophomore. The thing I failed to notice was the roster was 2016's.
