Certainly an interesting take from the Michigan State grad.
"That is going to be the most hostile environment this rivalry has ever had. It will be a tinder box. If I were a Michigan fan, I would never be at that game. Because there are decent odds that you'll be eating a battery."

“How do you rein it in? I don’t know how you do that. There’s not a day that’s gone by that I haven’t heard something about that game. … I don't know how you rein that in. It is what it is.”https://t.co/htOQwwDY5q

After last year and 11 Spartans players suspending for assaulting two Michigan players, this seems extremely inappropriate from Valenti.
