So Sad: An offensive lineman for Michigan, sustains a serious injury during a game against rival Ohio State.

An offensive lineman for the Wolverines, sustained a serious injury on Saturday when his parents hurried to the field to see their son, who was taken off.

Following a serious injury to Michigan’s offensive lineman Zak Zinter, the game between the Wolverines and Ohio State was momentarily stopped on Saturday.

Zinter had to use a cart to get off the field as broadcaster FOX declined to play replays of the event.

Zinter was blocking when a player from Ohio State landed hard on his twisted leg.

While Michigan players were leaving the sidelines to cheer on their teammate, his parents were racing down to the pitch to meet their son.

The Michigan supporters stood when Zinter was able to sit up on a stretcher and received a standing ovation.
