Western/Wolverines

[Ham]

So the NCCA admits that Western should have won the game, but it's too late to change the out come.  BS!!!  If Western had survived the illegal play, and this week it would be discovered that Western had used an ineligible player, you can bet the farm that the outcome would be changed.  Nothing is going to happen, but it is still BS!

So who has the authority if not the FBS oversight committee?

Western's big mistake was leaving the field. Once that happened they were stuck with the bad outcome.

Did WMU have any in-stadium options that day to contest/overturn?

 

Is there any prior precedent for overturning an outcome after the fact based on discovery of an officiating error?

 

Honestly, given the replay decision and play result, could this have gone any other way?

 

Of course I think the Broncos got screwed and were wronged. I’m just wondering whether there were any remedies and if so, what they were.

No, and it was never going to happen here.

Gotta admit I liked the karma of Iowa throwing a TD with no time remaining to beat Michigan.

Yeah Michigan kinda needed to give a couple seconds back in that one!

And because of Western getting smoked by Boise State, their outcome against Michigan will likely not have any national significance, granted it's still unjust and a major missed opportunity for Western.

Struggled to beat Rice the week before, too. They'll be a good MAC team but don't really belong in any type of national conversation.
