Michigan State Suspends Four More Players in Wake of Tunnel Brawl

In a joint statement from football coach Mel Tucker and athletic director Alan Haller, Michigan State announced it has suspended four more players for their roles in altercations after the Spartans’ game at Michigan on Saturday night.

The total number of Michigan State players suspended is now eight. The suspensions come in the wake of a group of Spartans players being caught on camera kicking and punching Michigan football player Ja’Den McBurrows after the game as both sides were heading to their separate locker rooms. Another video shows a Michigan State player attacking another Wolverines player with a helmet.
