Rewriting the University of Michigan football team's history books

By Pete Bigelow

Greg Dooley at MVictors.com has the story of an official scoring change recently made in the University of Michigan football team's record books - for a game that occurred in 1903.

Author John Kryk gets credit for the change, after unearthing a Michigan Daily article in the Bentley Library that provides the pertinent details that recap the team's game against Ferris State.

Sweet, sounds like groundwork is being built for another national championship! Don't let Notre Dame get wind of this, or they'll add some more leather helmet championships too.
