Police had to use pepper spray to break up the players, who threw punches and shoves in the melee that overshadowed the rivalry game on Saturday.

A brawl broke out between Michigan and Ohio State players Saturday after the Wolverines planted their flag at midfield in the Horseshoe following their upset of the second-ranked Buckeyes.

The Buckeyes took exception to the Wolverines planting their 'Block M' flag at midfield, and a full-on brawl broke out between the two bitter rivals. While the brawl continued, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day was caught on camera looking back at the skirmish and making no move or effort to get his players back into their locker rooms.
