One of the best rivalries in college football suffered one of its biggest upsets today. And after the match it got even crazier.
Unranked Michigan went to Columbus and defeated No. 2 Ohio State, a stunning result considering Ohio State was a three-touchdown favorite. But the game itself won’t be what everyone talks about next.
Immediately after the game, a chaotic scene broke out, with a Michigan player attempting to plant his team’s flag on the Ohio State logo at midfield, an Ohio State player ripping the flag from the pole and throwing it down, and dozens of players from both teams. pushing and shoving on the field as coaches, police and security tried to get the situation under control.
Police or security appeared to use pepper spray to get the players off the field, and two Michigan players rubbed their eyes in obvious pain.
It was an ugly scene that should never have happened, and there will certainly be consequences for both teams after a memorable game became even more memorable for all the wrong reasons.
