Miami had 30 more yards so basically even, more importantly almost 2 more yards per play. IU ran for 2.9 yards per rush. But….


IU 4/4 red zone scoring. 2/2 4th down. Blocked punt TD.
Miami 22 more penalty yards. 0/1 FG. 1 INT.

You could not watch the game and perfectly match the talent/coaching to the team.

I don’t know how to not make this sound like sour grapes…but this can’t even really mean that much to IU fans. It would be like us winning a basketball national title. Sort of fun in a novel sort of way. Idk. It can’t mean as much without all the years of close misses and heartbreak. They sucked and then got good in 24 months.

Um, I think if ND won a MBB title it would be a pretty big deal. But I doubt we'll be testing what effect a MBB title would have anytime soon.

Didn’t want either team to win but since one had to, I was hoping for a the losing team to get blown out. Dammit.

Just tried to articulate the same sentiment to my wife and just came off as an asshole. It’s like when the Vegas Knights went to the Stanley Cup in their first year of existence. “You people really can’t care about this?"
