Zak Zinter, who had to be carted off the field during the second half of The Game, apparently has a broken tibia and fibia and had to have surgery this evening, his mother posted to Facebook:

We wish Zinter, an All-American for the Wolverines, a speedy recovery. Zinter has been a staple on Michigan’s OL which has won the best OL group the last two years.
Cool observation on the sidelines. When Zak Zinter went down we saw several OSU players praying for him. Then @AmberHolley05 said she saw some of our guys go over and hug those guys. Say what you want, but thatβs some serious sportsmanship.

Michigan coach Sherrone Moore says Zak Zinterβs injury was βextremely difficult.β
Got some positive news from his family on the phone from the hospital in terms of being able to heal up for his future career.
