Warren was sacked in the third quarter against Alabama after he scrambled to the right but was dragged down hard near the Crimson Tide sideline. He stayed on the ground and was attended to by the Michigan medical team before leaving the field with assistance. He limped to the Michigan locker room.
Warren finished the day 9 of 12 passing for 73 yards and a touchdown. He was soon ruled out and seen on the ESPN broadcast in street clothes. While the team announced it was a right knee injury, he announced his torn ACL in his right knee on Saturday.
