LIVE VIDEO:A fight breaks out in Carmen, Ohio, following the planting of the flag at middle by Michigan players.
A fight broke out at Ohio Stadium after Ohio State’s loss as Michigan players tried to plant a flag at midfield.
The Buckeyes were trying to sing “Carmen Ohio” at the south end of the stadium, a post game tradition, as multiple Wolverines carried out a Michigan flag to midfield and tried to plant it on the Block O.
Essentially, the entire Ohio State team took exception and a brawl broke out between dozens of players.
At one point, Ohio State defensive end Jack Sawyer was able to grab the flag and rip it off of the pole before walking away. The fight was eventually broken up and the players separated. The brawl comes after a hard-fought and emotional 13-10 loss for Ohio State. Will Howard threw two interceptions and Jayden Fielding missed two field goals, one of which was from a short distance. Ohio State needs a miracle to make it in the Big Ten Championship. They would need losses by both Indiana and Penn State.
