ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Michigan tight end Colston Loveland and Michigan State defensive end Anthony Jones pushed, shoved and butted helmets, triggering a skirmish with the rivals throwing punches as the final seconds ticked off the clock Saturday night. «It was heat-of-the-moment type stuff,» Loveland said at a postgame news conference after the Wolverines won 24-17.
Loveland might have cooled down at his news conference on the Big Ten Network. «Lil bro stay doing little bro things,» Loveland told BTN on the field. «So, MSU is the little bro.
They can do whatever they want. We knew it was going to get chippy. Everything within the confines of the game, we do right.
And then after if they want to get busy, we'll get busy.» Quarterback Davis Warren took a knee to let the remaining time run out as Loveland and Jones got tangled up.
