Official '26 CFB Championship, Indiana vs. Miami, game thread

[Ludd]

Need a wheelbarrow to carry those testicles of HC and OC.
Ballsy call.

Only because they made it, had they not made it the discussion would have been what a bad call it was.

Would be a bad call but still a ballsy call too.

 

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

These kids for IU can effing tackle

 

[OhioLion]

Would be a bad call but still a ballsy call too.

Agreed
Like the Bears this weekend?

 

[Grant Green]

Would be a bad call but still a ballsy call too.

Except if they didn’t get it nobody would call it gutsy.

 

[Pa$ky859]

That was a run for the ages by Mendoza

 

[OhioLion]

Time to show why you won the Heisman.

 

[psu31trap]

TD Miami after an insane hold by the WR on the CB.
Anyway we have a game with 6 minutes to go.

 

[Alphalion75]

Time to show why you won the Heisman.

At this stage, I don't believe he needs to prove anything.

 

[psu31trap]

That’s the game.

 

[KingLando]

Miami still hasn't adapted to the back shoulder throw...same kid every time

 

[creamery freak]

That’s the game.

Yep and pretty blatant interference too. Just the usual handfighting we'd be told.

 

[Alphalion75]

Miami still hasn't adapted to the back shoulder throw...same kid every time

Lots of teams haven't been able to defend it.

 

[Ten Years After]

I saw a piece in one of the pregame segments today about how this officiating crew was the absolute best. All I can say is there have been a lot of non calls that have gone against Indiana from this "great" crew.

 

[Alphalion75]

Who's up for TPing Finebaum's house tonight?

 

[creamery freak]

IU hasn't got much pressure on Beck tonight, it's going to bite them now

 

[Chumboshifko1]

Is there weepin'?

 

[KingLando]

Cignetti shouldn't have complained about the earlier no calls on roughing the passer...they were watching it

 

[BobPSU92]

Of course. Sh|t throw by beck.

 

[KingLando]

Congrats to the Hoosiers
Horrible decision by Beck

I saw the same segment. Let me say that this officiating crew has been terrible.

 

[DELion]

Always gratifying to see thug U go down.

 

[DaytonRickster]

Would be a bad call but still a ballsy call too.

He had to go for it. He knew his defense was gassed and he needed a two score margin to try to give some breathing room.

 

[IrishHerb]

One thing I don't understand is Indiana's last FG. Why go for 3 when you're only up 3? If Miami had scored a TD, they'd have won.

Glad it worked out the way it did though.

 

[BobPSU92]

mendoza is so punchable.

 

[KingLando]

Gotta give Vegas credit. Over/under was 48.5 smh

 

[Fred8811]

Fernando a Steeler!

 

[pendal1]

mendoza is so punchable.

He's the kind of kid that wins National Championships. Smart, tough, and grounded in faith.

 

[Binder74]

BIG! BIG! BIG!

 

[Grant Green]

People bet on Sham too. Have at it GG! I kid of course.

Glad that I did!

 

[KingLando]

Fernando a Steeler!

Raider

 

[LMTLION]

mendoza is so punchable.

So is Cignetti.
But Beck is the most punchable.

 

[BobPSU92]

BIG! BIG! BIG!

 

[KingLando]

BIG! BIG! BIG!

Hopefully the run continues for a while

 

[pendal1]

Glad it worked out the way it did though.

Because you force Miami to have to score a TD to beat you and when you have a great defense that's hard to do. Joe won a lot of games that way.

 

[massimoManca II]

INTERCEPTED GIFTOPOULOS !!!

deja vous

 

[KingLando]

Agreed. Add to that Miami's kicker missed a 50 yarder earlier but can hit from about 60

Eliminated Miami tying with a field goal

 

[Phlebitis]

mendoza is so punchable.

I have a feeling he'd still have that grin on his face.

 

[Alphalion75]

mendoza is so punchable.

What?
