Ohio State spokesman Dan Hedman said police officers from multiple agencies broke up the scuffle. "During this scuffle, multiple officers representing Ohio and Michigan deployed pepper spray," he said in a statement.

Hedman said the OSU Police Department is the lead agency investigating the matter.

Ohio State coach Ryan Day addressed the clash at a postgame press conference, saying that he didn't "know all the details" about what unfolded but added, "I know that these guys are looking to put a flag on our field and our guys weren't going to let that happen."

"This is our field and certainly we're embarrassed with the fact that we lost the game but there's some prideful guys on this team that weren't just gonna let that happen," Day said. He said he spoke with the team following the incident.
