Hell, maybe the players actually thought they weren't dirty (unlikely. Martin's comments were very cryptic).
I know what I saw. I watch a lot of football, and I've rarely seen anything as bad as what State did Saturday. It says more to me that the questions had to be asked than how the Michigan contingent answered them. State was the better team. They could have won by playing tough, hard-nosed football, or they could have won by playing classless, dirty football. Their coaching staff chose the latter. Personally, I hope Wisconsin runs the score up on them Saturday.
OK, now this comes from a guy who may sometimes over-react regarding UM. However the above bolded statement takes the cake. You are probably one of those Walverines saying Gholston should be charged with Attempted Murder. Seriously, you need to get a grip. This is FOOTBALL, not FUTBALL. Your whole "taking the moral high ground" is a hollow attempt at taking the attention away from the fact MSU man-handled UM and took Denard from a Heisman candidate to people wondering if he should even start at QB. Deal with it. MSU beat the snot out of UM and it will be the same next year. MSU will gang-tackle, finish tackles and take every opportunity to make it so UM players are writhing on the ground. Cry all you want, toots. Its the way it is.
