Michigan, Michigan State football players have postgame altercation in tunnel

What started off as typical end of the game chippiness turned ugly, the Michigan Wolverines and Michigan State Spartans had some words that turned physical in the Michigan Stadium tunnel after the game.

Head coaches of both teams, Michigan State's Mel Tucker and Michigan's Jim Harbaugh were seen trying to direct their players to the respective locker rooms. The trash talk had begun just seconds after the final play of U-M's 29-7 victory over MSU and the delayed, yet respectful handshake between Tucker and Harbaugh was sandwiched between players from both MSU and U-M trash talking and jostling.

MSU head coach Mel Tucker discussed the postgame altercation with reporters after the game.
