The Big Ten will not take any further action against participants in Saturday’s postgame fight involving players from Michigan State and Michigan.

The conference announced Tuesday that its thorough review of the video evidence from the incident in Ann Arbor was “inconclusive.”

“Amidst the confrontation, student-athletes from both teams were on the ground and surrounded by so many individuals that both players were completely obscured from view,” the Big Ten said in a statement. “The video review was inconclusive as to whether individual discipline was appropriate for anyone in the immediate vicinity of the two players who were on the ground.

“While the confrontation was a disappointing conclusion to the contest, the Conference appreciates the efforts made by staff from both teams, security personnel, and game officials to rapidly de-escalate the incident, as well as the responses by both head coaches. The Big Ten discussed the situation with both institutions and determined that no further action will be taken.”

In the final moments of Michigan’s 24-17 victory, Spartans defensive lineman Anthony Jones and Wolverines tight end Colston Loveland began to scuffle, and both teams left the sidelines as the clock ticked down.

Loveland was seen headbutting Jones with his helmet on, and later in the fracas, Michigan running Kalel Mullings appeared to be stomping on a player at the bottom of a pile.

The Big Ten’s decision to drop the investigation means that both programs can focus on big games this Saturday.

Defending national champion Michigan (5-3, 3-2 Big Ten) plays host to No. 1 Oregon (8-0, 5-0). Michigan State (4-4, 2-3) takes on No. 13 Indiana (8-0, 5-0) in East Lansing, Mich.
