I can't help but wonder if the College Football Playoff committee takes this into account during rankings.
They operate outside the FBS. Would be some sort of justice to reward Western Michigan & treat Michigan as such, with the loss they should have.
The FBS Oversight Committee says in a statement that "instant replay protocols were not followed in the contest’s second-to-last play" in the Western Michigan-Michigan game, and "had the protocols been followed, the outcome of the game would have been different."
FBS oversight committee says it cannot overturn the result.
