Why single out IU for NIL? Every team from last year going forward will have bought a title.
I'm not honestly--people are trying to make Indiana into this Cinderella story though when they're not. Indiana and Texas Tech both are spending huge amounts of money--no different than Ohio State. Actually, it's a little different as Ohio State at least has like 75% of their players that they initially recruited (Georgia was at 90%) while Indiana and Miami don't.

Please Indiana don't lose this because if Miami wins the players will celebrate by doing a smash and grab at the local jewelry store.

I don't even know who to root for at this point. I can't stand either coach. I dislike Miami more as a program but Indiana is now Mark Cuban University so...
Go Big Ten I guess

And complaining like a Pittsburgh guy as well.
Interesting that some of us act like Pittsburgh is only home to Pitt. Penn State has gotten some really good, hard nosed players from Pittsburgh over the years and there’s a lot of alumni and current students from the Pittsburgh area.

True but it’s still fun to make fun of Pittsburgh.

A much needed stop by Indiana. But that looked like interference. I’m ok with letting the guys play but some of these non-calls are crazy.

Is crybaby Cignetti going to whine on the sideline how his team didn't get called for obvious DPI - it was "black & white" after all (contact way early with arm wrapped on waist and then also draped second arm across chest early preventing Miami receiver from even raising his arm).

Terrible officiating!! I hate seeing flags just as much as the next guy but the No calls I’m watching tonight is embarrassing.
Not sure which one you're talking about but the back shoulder throw Sarratt was a good no call--both were grabbing
That blocked punt ends the game IMO

It may seem so to guys like you and me. Fortunately, every network has an expert to tell us the call on the field was actiually correct. We didn't see what we thought we did and yes, there was a lot of grabbing and "hand-fighting" but not enough to throw a flag. <Insert sarcasm emoji>

Yes, nothing more than rubber stamping with an occasional irrelevant minor point to appear neutral.

I have to say that watching the game on SkyCast with no commentary is a pleasant experience.
