Florida State and former head coach Bobby Bowden will vacate 12 wins.
Tallahassee, FL (Sports Network) -
Florida State's athletic department officially announced the vacating of wins relating to last year's academic fraud violations, including 12 for football under former head coach Bobby Bowden's watch.
The NCAA had denied an appeal by Florida State last month to overturn the vacation-of-records penalty. All that was left was Sunday's determination of which contests the ineligible student-athletes participated.
The NCAA's Division I Committee on Infractions originally levied the records penalty, along with a four-year period of probation and reduced scholarships, in March of 2009 for major violations across 10 sports involving 61 student- athletes during 2006 and 2007.
