Not trying to kick you while you are down…but i wasnt sure if you were aware of this situation; not sure if its legit or not. Buddy of mine at work says the ND win would still count becuase the player was eligible by NCAA standards but not Big Ten standards because they dont count summer school grades:
I did see that. Its a legit story - the situation was announced by our AD sometime Saturday. Michigan voluntarily disclosed the violation.
It is a Big Ten issue, not an NCAA issue, so yes the ND win would still count. They could potentially make us forfeit our victory to PSU but my guess is that the penalty will be a little less extreme.

Also, sorry about your loss this Saturday. Heartbreaking, I’m sure.
