Title Game

I was only able to watch the last part of the 4th quarter. I was actually thinking with that short viewing time that the NCAA was not going to let Indiana win. Then I saw the replays of the hits the officials allowed on Mendoza and was more surprised Indiana won.

Here's the crazy thing. If you saw the last drive of the game, you saw Indiana flagged for a late hit on Beck that was a bang bang play with a clean hit to keep Miami hopes alive. Meanwhile Miami was getting an additional 2-3 steps to really load up and lay the lumber to Mendoza. The refs swallowed their whistles all night when it came to Mendoza getting rocked. He might be a little awkward in interviews, but that young man is a gamer.
 
While doing that post game is textbook Caines being thugs - supposedly an open mic caught the IU player say something about Fletcher's dead dad.....so he may have had a good reason to react. Either way - I'm sure his car traveling mom is very proud of him.
"Supposedly"...Is this the Miami side of the story? This sounds like a classic case of finding an excuse for abhorrent behavior. Think about it. You have just won a national championship, your teammates are celebrating all over the field, awesome vibes everywhere, and you decide to call out an opponent's dead father as part of the celebration? Makes no sense. I'm not buying it unless I hear the actual audio. More than likely it's a Miami player doing what Miami players do.

I think Miami was challenged by their coaches to out physical IU - and they tried. Stepping over that line a few times to be sure. Thugs gotta thug....I guess. Glad Miami lost. Nebraska needs to get to that level of physicality and if Rhule can't do it.....find someone who can.

I did see it and you are right.
 
My only thought would be about buying an NC. I'd feel dirty myself if I had to resort to "ensuring" success.

I like the uncertainty, and thrill of the chase as much as the end result too. I mean if you fairly know what is possibly going to be the end result...where's the fun in that?

It was to me. I thought Indiana would blow the Canes out.

But time after time, Miami kept coming back after numerous Indiana plays that would have knocked the stuffing out of lesser teams--especially the Hoosers' blocked punt for a TD.

All the way up until the Hoosers' last minute interception, it looked to me like Miami was posed to come-from-behind to win in the final seconds.

As a life-long Miami hater, they earned a hell of a lot of respect from me last night.
I had given you a like until that respect miami line , then I wanted to give u the finger . But that’s just me :catfight:
