Pro wrestling sentiment was in the tunnel at the Pennsylvania halftime finish in the Michigan game.
Let’s just say Michigan Wolverines and Penn State Nittany Lions don’t exactly like each other.
And why are they? These are the competitors in the Big Ten East Division and they have a ton at stake in Week 7. Both teams are undefeated and ranked within the top 10. While Michigan is the top-ranked team and is at home, Penn State is trailing the Wolverines by a narrow margin. Point in the first half day beige saturday afternoon. The winner of this game is likely to be Ohio State’s biggest competitor in the Big Ten.
We haven’t seen much drama in the tunnel since ECW was dominating way back in the day.

Michigan and Pennsylvania almost got into a tunnel brawl at halftime
While it remains to be seen what nearly sparked this conflict, it could be 100 per cent about one player questioning the truth of the other team’s mascot. Have you ever seen Wolverine in person? And what in teetering is a Nitani lion exactly? The Buckeye may be a nut on a tree, but people in the great state of Ohio have seen this stuff before, so they know it’s real.
Overall, FOX couldn’t have picked a better game for it beige saturday afternoon. We have a football match in mid-October between two unbeaten teams in the first division. Michigan and Penn State are huge brands, but they always have to play second or third Ohio in their own division. Every once in a while, one gets to get the best of the Buckeyes, and the world of college football explodes.
In the end, cooler heads will reign supreme at The Big House on Saturday afternoon. This is the biggest game for both teams, outside of Ohio State history. While Penn State will host the Buckeyes here in a few weeks, Michigan has a high chance of being 11-0 when the Wolverines have to go to The Horseshoe at Thanksgiving Weekend if they are to hold out and win this game.
The only thing better than all-out tunnel brawls is that you almost make it happen.
