Notre Dame has been ordered to vacate wins from 2012 and 2013 after a student athletic trainer committed academic misconduct on behalf of multiple football players. The program will appeal the punishment.

The NCAA announced its findings and the penalties on Tuesday. The trainer was found to be in violation of ethical conduct rules after committing misconduct by completing coursework for two student-athletes and providing impermissible academic benefits to six others. Another student athlete was found to have committed academic misconduct on his own.

Part of me thinks Penn State would do Ohio State a favor, because OSU probably still gets to the playoff without having to play in the Big Ten Championship Game.

Of course it would be weird if Penn State wins the Big Ten title and they don’t even go to the playoffs, when a team that didn’t even win their division does.

Agree, but should have given the ball to L.J. Scott. IMO.

A high school team here in semifinals was not bold. Scored TD on last play of game, then had extra point blocked. Lost by 1. You gotta go for 2 in that situation.

I think if Peen State wins the B1G by beating someone like Wisconsin, and if Ohio State beats Michigan, they both may get in. Not saying the will. The committee may not allow it. But how do you not take the Number 2 team that just beat the number 4 team? And how do you not take the B1G Champion when the B1G appears to be the premier conference this year? This is what makes college football so much better than the NFL. I still say they need 8 teams. Four games News Years Day (ex. Rose, Sugar, Fiesta, Orange). Then two games a week later. Followed by the championship game a week after that.

Ohio State should have had a shot. They were the defending champions, they lost one game, in a monsoon, on a last second field goal. As a result MSU went to the B1G Championship game. But that is the current system. In an 8 team playoff that would not have been the case.

Curious: Why do you “hate” Notre Dame?

Probably something to do with it being a Catholic institution...hardly unusual for this website...

Don't know why that person hates Notre Dame, but I hate them because they could put 11 paraplegic nuns on the field and some jackasses would still vote them in the top 10. WITNESS THIS YEAR!
