Seven Michigan State players are facing criminal charges for their involvement in an altercation with a UM player.

Felonious assault was the only felony charge against him. Windon was charged with assault and battery, along with Itayvion Brown, Grose, White, and Wright.

The players were fighting in the tunnel after the game.

Harbaugh had said that there needs to be accountability.

After the fight, Grose, Brown, Crump, and Young were all suspended by Michigan State, as well as White, Windmon, Wright, and Malcolm Jones.

Only Jones was not charged.

Michigan State President Samuel Stanley said in a statement that he was sad about the incident and the behavior depicted by members of the football program. My apology is on behalf of Michigan State University.

There is no justification for the behavior seen on the videos. Rivalries can be intense, but shouldn't be violent.

Michigan State will play Penn State on Saturday.
