Two years after the tunnel fight, Michigan football and Michigan State football ended their latest rivalry game with a fight on the field after Michigan took a knee to complete a 24-17 win.
It’s unclear who specifically started the fight, but things broke out when Michigan tight end Colston Loveland and MSU defensive lineman Anthony Jones got together.
“Little bro stay doing little bro things,” Loveland told Big Ten Network. “MSU, the little bro. They can do whatever they want. We knew it was going to get chippy. Everything within the confines of the game, we do right, and then after the game, they want to get busy, we’ll get busy.”
Michigan outscored Michigan State in the second, third and fourth quarters to secure the win at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor in the 117th matchup between in-state rivals.
Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore discussed the fight, as well.
“That’s disappointing,” Moore told Big Ten Network. “That’s not what Michigan football is all about. That’s not how we represent our program and this university. That’s uncalled for. That’ll be dealt with and handled, but that’s just very disappointing that our football team was a part of that.”
