One injury reported as crowd storms field

Despite more than 100 people being ejected from the game, there was only one minor injury resulting from the rush onto the field at Camp Randall Stadium after the Badger's victory against Ohio State Saturday.

The fans in the first 20 rows were pushed against the railing separating the stands from the field as students pushed their way down the bleachers from the tops of sections M, N, O and P at the end of the game. Police helped fans over the railing to avoid any serious problems.

Police issued 37 citations, including 35 arrests, most for underage drinking, according to the Wisconsin State Journal. Twenty-two of these arrests involved UW-Madison students.
