The ignorance that follows winning sports programs

The culture of denial among Michigan faithful regarding their own blatant cheating is getting absurd. We know they paid connor stallions to put people in opposing teams stadiums and record their signal calls. we know this guy was on Michigan sidelines helping in key games to relay his findings to michigan staffers.
and yet michigan fans have channelled their inner FSU fandom (when Jameis was out committing sexual assualts and the FSU fans decided to stand behind their guy). Michigan fans are in denial, living in a dream world; making endless excuses and deflecting blame to Ohio State for hiring an investigator now.
This made me ask a larger question, is it impossible to accept obvious misgivings about your team when that team is in the midst of winning?
Urban Meyer had this same issue multiple times where his dirty programs were as corrupt as possible and winning was all that really mattered.
