- Western Michigan president Russ Kavalhuna said Sunday he didn't 'discern anything unfair' with the Big Ten's replay decision that added an extra second to the clock and led to Michigan's victory.
- Kavalhuna's statement came a day after the Broncos' last-second loss to the Wolverines.
Why it matters: Western Michigan's public acceptance defuses a potential institutional challenge to the Big Ten's replay process, leaving the conference's one-second ruling — which directly decided the game — unchallenged by the losing side. A university president's green light carries more weight than a coach's complaint and clears the path for the Big Ten to move on without formal review.
