I think you and the rest of the student body can and should still support the players.
Who knows, after all this shit, once Saturday rolls around and you're about to kick off against Nebraska, support for the team (I'm talking about the guys actually taking the field) could be as high as it's ever been. Just because of everything that's happened. It'll be like "WE'RE STILL HERE, MOTHERFUCKERS!"
I think the school spirit will return very quickly. You took a huge punch, but it's not like you aren't still in the hunt for the B1G TEN title, ya know? You can still beat Nebraska. Your defense is still damn good.
It would be a nice story if the kids on the team pulled together after all this and actually did win it. Who do you play after Nebraska?
