As I said earlier, if Miami played the same game as they did against Ole Miss, they wouldn’t beat Indiana. A missed FG, a punt block for a TD, and an interception. You don’t beat Indiana with those kind of mistakes, and the Canes, despite a resilient effor,t lose 27-21. It was an amazing season …

It’s been a little bit strange reading and listening to previews of the Miami and Indiana National Title Game. I’ve never seen one team, in this case Indiana, be so heavily favored versus an opponent when the teams are basically a wash at the line of scrimmage on both sides. In fact, some college football …

Well, Indiana just made their matchup with Oregon look like an organized scrimmage. Indiana raced out to 35-7 halftime lead and never looked back. The Hoosiers execution level is out of this world. Curt Cignetti is a freaking wizard. What can you say? Coming into the playoffs, there were only two teams that I thought …

I’ll be the first to admit that if the Ole Miss / Miami game came down to the 4th quarter with a Carson Beck vs Trinidad Chambliss QB battle that I didn’t think Beck could outduel Chambliss. Chambliss was fantastic, but Beck delivered and Miami is headed to the National Title Game. Congrats to them …

It got a little shaky at times in the Holiday Bowl, but after going up 24-0 on #17 9-3 Arizona, SMU won 24-20, completing another 9+ win season at SMU. That makes 3 straight seasons SMU has won 9 or more games. When you do that in the American conference, that’s good. When you do …

Friday night, Wake Forest closed out what can only be described as a truly remarkable 9 win season by beating Mississippi State in the Duke Mayo’s Bowl 43-29. Going into the game Wake Forest was an underdog to a 5-7 Bulldog team. Mississippi State was a bad team, from a very pedestrian SEC. I don’t …

With the context of actual game play, several things that most keen football fans and observers knew already were validated by the results. It’s a shame the CFP Committee was force-fed to include the wrong teams based on brands and conference affiliation. This is what the CFP ended up doing. Indiana (13-0) Ohio State (12-1) …

For the last 2 years, any variation of the future College Football Playoffs heavily favored the SEC and the Big 10. SEC commissioner Greg Sankey and Big 10 commissioner Tony Pettiti were creating a P2 that marginalized the Big 12, ACC, the G5 to such an extent that there was even a discussion of just …

On November 16th, Duke sat 5-5 after getting blown out by Virginia and preceded with a loss to UConn. One December 31st, Duke finishes the season with a Sun Bowl win over Arizona State, an ACC Title, a 9 win season, and possibly a top 25 finish. The 42-39 win over Arizona State gives Duke …
