A video of the incident between Michigan State and Michigan players appeared to show the second skirmish between players following the Wolverines’ victory over the Spartans on Saturday.
Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh said in the postgame press conference there were two incidents in the aftermath of the game, but until Sunday only one of the incidents was documented. The second video surfaced and appeared to show a Spartans player using his helmet to hit a Wolverines player.
“Absolutely disgusting,” the video was captioned.The first incident centered around Michigan defensive back Ja’Den McBurrows. Videos posted to social media appeared to show at least three Michigan State players pushing, punching and kicking McBurrows in and near a hallway that does not lead to either team’s locker room.
There didn’t appear to be any other Michigan players near McBurrows when the incident occurred.
Harbaugh said a second player, who wasn’t identified, was also attacked and one was injured and might have a broken nose.
“Two of our players were assaulted,” Harbaugh said. “I saw on the one video — 10 on one. It was pretty bad. It needs to be investigated.”An investigation is underway in partnership with Michigan State University Police and Michigan’s athletic department and football program, University of Michigan Deputy Chief of Police Melissa Overton said.
“Situations like these, and the safety of the community, are taken very seriously,” Overton said.
