You have to wonder why this has gotten so many second looks, when nothing can actually be done about it.

It’s think the effort would be better placed explaining why this cannot be overturned, and who would theoretically have the power to do so. This is a moment for precedent to be set, but all we are left with is controversy.

They’ve got Iowa, Indiana, Penn State, Oregon and Ohio State. I trust they’ll have a few losses, but the CFB Committee needs to internally dock them 1 game

According tot heir logic once the result goes "official" there's no changing it, no matter how incorrect it is.

Yeah it's blatantly wrong, but it's "official" now so we can't change it.

Why not? Aren't you the ones who declared it official to begin with?


You are asking great questions because they cut right through the B1G's logic.

"We declared a result 'official' based on our rules and processes that we came up with. But even though we know it's wrong we totally can't change it based on our rules that we came up with"

That just means that the B1G doesn't have sufficient procedures in place to handle this situation. That's the B1G's fault, not CMU's, and I really hope people keep hammering them.

The NCAA cited two rules on the subject: Rule 1-1-3-b: When the referee declares that the game is ended, the score is final. Rule 5-2-9: No rule decision may be changed after the ball is next legally snapped, legally free-kicked or the second or fourth periods have ended.
