The Dinos football team at the University of Calgary has had to forfeit a game because two of its players were ineligible.
Head coach Blake Nill says it was an administrative error and the players didn't have the proper academic requirements.
"The big thing that's disappointing about this is that the document that showed they were ineligible was rung-in in July and August and if we would have been informed about it at that point something could have been done to fix this very easily."
The Dinos' 71-3 victory on Sep. 5 will now be officially recorded as a 1-0 win for the Alberta Golden Bears. Nill says the two players and the whole team are devastated.

Calgary is now tied at 3-1 with the University of Saskatchewan in Canada West. The same thing happened to Queens earlier this year in a game against Windsor.
