Sugar bowl over a few tatoos, why wouldn't Bama get in trouble for taking performance enhancement right before a game?

On paper, college football has a strong drug policy. The NCAA conducts random, unannounced drug testing and the penalties for failure are severe. Players lose an entire year of eligibility after a first positive test. A second offense means permanent ineligibility from sports.
In practice, though, the NCAA's roughly 11,000 annual tests amount to just a fraction of all athletes in Division I and II schools. Exactly how many tests are conducted each year on football players is unclear because the NCAA hasn't published its data for two years. And when it did, it periodically changed the formats, making it impossible to compare one year of football to the next.
Even when players are tested by the NCAA, people involved in the process say it's easy enough to anticipate the test and develop a doping routine that results in a clean test by the time it occurs. NCAA rules say players can be notified up to two days in advance of a test, which Catlin says is plenty of time to beat a test if players have designed the right doping regimen. By comparison, Olympic athletes are given no notice.
"Everybody knows when testing is coming. They all know. And they know how to beat the test," Catlin said, adding, "Only the really dumb ones are getting caught." (("It's nothing like what's going on in reality," said Don Catlin, an anti-doping pioneer who spent years conducting the NCAA's laboratory tests at UCLA. He became so frustrated with the college system that it drove him in part to leave the testing industry to focus on anti-doping research.))

have we heard anything else about it? Nope.
We know ESecPN won't do anything to look into it so unless Yahoo or Deadspin does then we won't hear anything about it.
Not to mention the only way to track IGF-1 is to do a blood test so there is no way to go back and test the blood of every member on the Alabama team from 2012 and we haven't heard any rumors of the 2013 team using it against ND so there isn't a basis to blood test any of them if any IGF-1 was still in their system.
Now if the NCAA starts giving sanctions out for rumors then they are opening Pandora's Box and that's not a precedent they want to set.

Adding more than 20 or 25 pounds of lean muscle in a year is nearly impossible through diet and exercise alone, said Dan Benardot, director of the Laboratory for Elite Athlete Performance at Georgia State University.
