Great game. Looking at who was included in the CFB field I thought Miami was the weak link. Now here they are in the finals and peaking. Crazy. I still think 8 teams and no byes should have been the play. Miami is making a statement for a larger playoff system.
OT: College Football Playoffs Semifinal Games 1/8-1/9 Thurs-Fri

One thing I enjoyed about Miami winning is we can say definitely that SEC is at best the 2nd best conference! No teams in championship game past 3 years !
I can just imagine it: "We would have won. If Jesus didn't make me fumble. He hates our team." That might be in the Big Book of SEC excuses.
Definitely getting the CFP expanded to 12 so that the Bye Week excuse will go away when Top 4 now host the JMUs and ODUs of the world.
Between that and the “DPI should’ve been called on the last play of the game,” excuse.
Cignetti is an elite evaluator of talent? He's not just shoveling Cuban's cash at All Americans in the portal? Who would have thought?
Maybe he does a better job with “Cuban’s Cash” than most coaches with that cash have done since NIL started.
I don’t pray to have anyone lose in sports. That’s loser talk. Not surprised you came up with it.
Hahah you tell us all the time how Mario sucks. He isnt without his flaws like 99% of CFB coaches but hes a damn good coach still.
Glad your back so we can all keep stuffing you in a lockerI was listening to the CFE pod and they lose quite a bit this year, JMU guys etc. it’ll be interesting to see how well CC does replacing them. I still expect them to be good but this level good, not sure.
Also mentioned a sentiment I’ve heard multiple times over the past months. If you hire a guy who says I need 3-4 years to build this thing, you’ve hired the wrong guy…you’re hired you’re fired lol.
I heard him referred to as the “killer of all excuses.”
Cignetti is putting the heat on a lot of coaches. If he wins a National Championship after just 2 seasons at the losingest program in college football history, no one will accept needing 3-4 years to be competitive ever again.
Don't worry ESPN will still carry the water for them saying that they should have actually had more teams in regardless of the fact that they only won 1 game this year in the CFP in which they were playing a team outside the SEC.
ND, I said so at the time and since and Alabama would’ve been left out. I was fine with Miami.
Anyone willing to donate to a GoFundMe for his plane ticket?
Interesting article about Cignetti's player evaluation process. Seems a little more involved than shoveling cash at the best players in the portal.

Thanks for sharing. Great read and I liked the Ola Adams snippets in there too
White flag raised. I like the part where you claim to be the bigger man after derailing it to start. Clown.Hahaha omg you're so triggered. Maybe you should've taken more time off
Looks like they’ve made the trip lol, good for them.

Looking forward to tonight’s game. Should be a really good game. I’m kind of rooting for Indiana which is one of the great stories in the sport ever. Having said that, I wouldn’t be stunned if Oregon wins. They are really talented and it’s tough beating a very talented team twice. However, Indiana has been the most consistent and best team this year. Two excellent QBs, should be a good one.
A Rutgers mention on the broadcast: Lanning said, "Except for the Rutgers game, the Ducks did not play well in all three phases of the game."
Except they were playing Rutgers. . . . . .

The espn logo flashing to a yellowish gold mid play is criminal and needs to be fixed
Oh man what a first play of the game…pick 6…return the favor to Oregon from the first game lol
Wow!
OK, I'm on board with the Indiana DB coach being our DC. That's all preparation.
