6. Roy Rountree (154 receptions, 2,304 yards, and 15 touchdowns)

Every Michigan football fan remembers Roy Roundtree for his game-winning touchdown reception against Notre Dame during the magical 2011 season.

The Wolverines went on to win the Sugar Bowl in Brady Hoke’s first season and things got off to a great start when Roundtree caught this touchdown pass, capping a furious fourth-quarter rally led by quarterback Denard Robinson.

Roundtree had eight catches for 82 yards and a touchdown in another win over Notre Dame in the previous season under Rich Rodriguez. Later that season, he hauled in nine receptions for 246 yards and two touchdowns against Illinois.

It’s still one of the most prolific showings by a wide receiver in Michigan football history. It was also one of six 100-yard games in his career.

Roundtree finished with 15 career touchdowns and has two seasons of more than 500 yards. He also hit at least 355 yards in each season, which makes up for the fact that he didn’t have a 1,000-yard season, although he was close in 2010 with 72 receptions for 935 yards.
