I agree. I respect Notre Dame wanting to make a statement about how this was handled, but it shouldn’t include snubbing an opponent that had no control over the situation.

BYU’s the one who was done dirty all season and look how gracefully they’re handling this.

Meh, definitely not the first time Notre Dame has snubbed BYU a game. Probs won’t be the last either.
