ESPN captured new footage of the ugly brawl in the tunnel after the Michigan State-Michigan game

More players deserve suspensions.

Michigan’s big win over rival Michigan State turned ugly on Saturday after Spartans players appeared to attack Michigan defensive backs Ja’Den McBurrows and Gemon Green in the tunnel. And it keeps getting worse by the day.

After the incident, Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker issued an apology and announced the indefinite suspensions of players Tank Brown, Khary Crump, Angelo Grose and Zion Young. Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh said that he expected criminal charges to be filed against the Michigan State players — some of whom were seen swinging helmets and kicking at the Michigan players when they were on the ground.

On Monday, ESPN released its own footage from the tunnel, which showed (from a distance) how the incident seemed to develop along with a helmet being swung by a Michigan State player. Linebacker Jacoby Windmon (wearing No. 4), who was not among the suspended players, also appeared to be heavily involved in holding Green as a helmet was swung.

Everything about the incident was terrible, and Harbaugh specifically mentioned the ESPN/ABC footage. Via freep.com:

“Right now we have an ongoing police investigation, what happened in the tunnel was egregious, sickening to watch,” Harbaugh said Monday afternoon. “The videos, the ones that are on social media right now and also the ABC tunnel cam is in a higher elevation that shows much more of what took place.

Fans also had thoughts on this latest look at the fight, especially after noticing Windmon’s involvement. There was no excuse for something like that to ever happen in college football.
