True to form, the Michigan-Michigan State rivalry is never over.
The Wolverines came out on top this season behind their dominant defense and a number of clutch plays by QB Shea Patterson. A formula that has led the team on a seven-game winning streak, the defense proved too much for a banged up Michigan State offensive line.
After the game, Jim Harbaugh took time to address an incident that happened before kickoff. According to Harbaugh, MSU players clothes-lined a few Michigan players and even ripped out Lavert Hill’s earbuds.
Harbaugh claimed Spartans head coach Mark Dantonio was a few yards behind everything, smiling at the incident. He addressed the antics and Dantonio’s reaction while labeling the whole thing “bush league.”

The incident occurred during the Spartans’ traditional march across the field in the pregame. For what it’s worth, Devin Bush did take out some frustration on the Sparty logo at midfield prior to the game.
