Michigan and Ohio State are certain to play one other spirited recreation on the gridiron this season, but it surely appears like there will probably be no flag planting afterward whatever the final result.
Michigan received its fourth straight recreation towards Ohio State final season, and the Wolverines’ newest victory was the largest upset the rivalry has seen in years. The eventual nationwide champion Buckeyes have been ranked No. 2 within the nation when an unranked Michigan staff went into Columbus and beat them, 13-10.
An enormous scrum broke out after the sport when Michigan gamers stood on Ohio State’s midfield emblem and pretended to plant their flag in enemy territory. The brawl obtained so out of hand that stadium police wound up using pepper spray.
Whereas talking with reporters on Thursday, Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore mentioned his gamers is not going to be partaking in any flag-planting exercise going ahead.
“There will probably be no extra flag planting. There will probably be no extra grabbing the flag,” Moore mentioned. “We talked about our new custom and what we do after we win a recreation is go beat the band, go sing our (struggle music) and keep over there till the opposite staff departs. That is how we’ll function — shake palms after the sport, present sportsmanship, be cordial.”
