'Belt to behind': Michigan football's NIL golf outing sparks MSU rivalry trash talk
Michigan football is holding its annual golf outing, fundraising through the NIL collective arm, Champions Circle. And rivalries appear to be on the mind. Though Ohio State is the chief rival, it appears that Michigan State is the current target of the Wolverines' ire. Without any context to the situation, defensive linemen Rayshaun Benny, Derrick Moore, and Tré Williams started musing about the Battle for the Paul Bunyan Trophy. It started seemingly by Benny, a former MSU commit, before Williams, the Clemson transfer, starting having his turn. "Go to lil' bro in East Lansing," Williams started. "Go to lil' bro crib in East Lansing, pop out, it's gonna be a good time." "Same thing as Norman," Benny said. "Turn that green into blue." At that point, Moore started taking off his belt, and whipping it into the ground, as the group said, "Belt to behind!" Michigan has won three straight in the series against MSU, with the last loss coming in 2021 in East Lansing.
