This follows a brawl between Michigan and Ohio State players after Michigan's victory, where Michigan players planted a flag at midfield, sparking the altercation.

California is the only state in the US to prohibit stealthing, but other states have proposed similar bills. The question of whether stealthing is considered rape is central to the discussion, and it is restricted in several countries around the world.
