After Michigan football upset then-No. 2 Ohio State on Nov. 30, the Wolverines did what they had done two years prior: took the flag from the cheer team and went to plant it at midfield. However, the home team in Columbus didn’t much appreciate that, and several Buckeyes rushed the celebrating maize and blue team.
Now a week and a half later, bodycam footage from one officer on the field has been released, showing them aggressively prying Michigan football players from the escalating skirmish.
You can watch three minutes of footage below, but be forewarned, there is profanity and aggressive behavior contained within.
WARNING: VIDEO CONTAINS PROFANITY

Now, this is one officer’s view and they are solely seen aggressively dealing with the Michigan side of things. There were Ohio State-based police and Michigan police on the scene, but this footage rarely shows the other side.
We were on the field for the postgame melee and witnessed aggressive actions from players on both sides as well as police involved.
We will provide more updates as they become available.
A Michigan football player, offensive lineman Raheem Anderson provides some context to part he was in. Anderson carried the flag to midfield.
Yes. The cop told me “stop moving or you will be tased” I stopped moving. https://t.co/xXz2MccTJ0
