The Wolverines, celebrating their upset win, attempted to plant a flag at midfield, a move that sparked a physical confrontation with Buckeyes players. In the ensuing chaos, players from both teams were seen pushing and shoving each other, escalating the altercation.
In an effort to break up the scuffle, law enforcement officials appeared on the scene, with reports indicating that police used some form of spray, possibly pepper spray, to disperse the players. Several Michigan players, including Mason Graham and Marlin Klein, were seen walking away from the altercation as the spray filled the air. Michigan’s Tavierre Dunlap and Jason Hewlett were also pictured on social media squinting and appearing to react to the mist, suggesting they may have been affected by the spray.
The situation highlighted the intense rivalry between the two teams, with emotions running high following a dramatic finish to the game. While the altercation was brief, it served as a reminder of the fierce competition and pride at stake in the annual showdown between Michigan and Ohio State.
It’s unclear if any arrests were made stemming from the chaos.
