Forty-seven AP voters removed Michigan from their ballots entirely after the Wolverines barely survived Western Michigan in a game that ended with a disputed clock ruling and a Hail Mary.
The Wolverines fell following their win over WMU, ahead of Oklahoma.
Front Office Sports posted what happened next. A Big Ten replay worker walked into that celebration with a tablet. He showed fans a shot that still read 0:01. The clip is ten seconds of a conference employee selling the call to people already standing on the grass. It did not calm anyone. It made the second look like a private clock.
Michigan won, 13-12, on a Hail Mary pass Saturday night. The replay official had put one second back on the clock after Bryce Underwood’s first Hail Mary attempt was incomplete.
