In a rare gesture of class in a heated rivalry, Michigan quarterback Devin Gardner made his way over to an injured J.T. Barrett after his Buckeye counterpart reportedly broke his ankle in the third quarter of the Wolverines' 42-28 loss at the hands of Ohio State. Gardner consoled the young star and had a message for him before he was carted off.

"I told him that I'm praying for him," Gardner said to reporters after the game. "I told him to stay positive."

Barrett is expected to miss next weekend's Big Ten Championship game, while Gardner's career as a Wolverine is officially over.

The fifth-year senior is a finalist for the Senior CLASS Award. The award "focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities".
