The Michigan Wolverines emerged victorious from Saturday’s rivalry game against the Michigan State Spartans in Ann Arbor and ran them off the field by a score of 44-10. Given the way things have gone in this matchup historically, of course the players were going to take every opportunity to pour it on.
In the aftermath of the win, several players took to social media to serve up another batch of reactions to taking down their in-state rivals.
Khaleke Hudson’s message after the game was a simple one:
What was said after the game? Khaleke Hudson: “We didn’t need to say anything. We won the game. I was celebrating with the Paul Bunyan trophy with my teammates”

BONUS REACTIONS - MICHIGAN STATE EDITION
Dantonio says the lack of discipline was "disappointing" but said the game was called close
— Matt Charboneau (@mattcharboneau) November 16, 2019
Urban Meyer with a blunt assessment of MSU:
— Chris Vannini (@ChrisVannini) November 16, 2019
"You watch Michigan State play, how many NFL players do they got? That doesn't look like the defenses I used to go against. They had first-round corners, Le'Veon Bell. I don't see that. That's coaches, recruiting development."
Mark Dantonio: “I don’t like losing to these guys.”

Next up for the Wolverines is a trip to Indiana next weekend before closing out the year against Ohio State.
