Seems like something that warrants an ejection is more than the type of unsportsmanlike conduct that only results in a 15 yard penalty.

#35 for Michigan threw a water bottle at Ohio St. and then dragged a player and a OSU staff member to the ground...

Were any of them ejected from the game by the referees?

They don't need to be ejected from the game for the BIG10 to do something about it...

I understand that. My point is that the two situations are not the same.

The Michigan-TOSU fight happened well after the game, no?

The referees were probably in the locker room by then.

I believe the conference would have to step in and change the penalty
