50 years ago, the Indiana basketball team went undefeated and won a national title. Back in November, I talked to Curt Cignetti about it, with his football team chasing perfection. "Can we equal the achievement of the (1976) basketball team? I guess we're going to find out.”

Should college football move its one portal window to spring? Should the early signing period go away? Could the CFP crown its champ on Jan. 1 (or close to it)? Could college have OTAs? “I’m pretty confident that you’re going to see some meaningful change.” www.nbcsports.com/college-foot...

News: Former Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola has officially committed to Oregon.

“They always keep trying to fit today’s world into last year’s calendar. It just doesn’t work. At some point, there’s got to be this total reset.” A deep dive into college football’s calendar problem — and what can be done to fix it: www.nbcsports.com/college-foot...

lol of course he missed

Texas has landed ex-Auburn star receiver Cam Coleman. That's a massive pickup.

It really cannot be a coincidence that it’s the first NFL season since we got a Chicago Pope, and the Bears are not just good but capable of the most unlikely and absurd comebacks possible.

That was an unbelievable game. Caleb Williams was unreal in the fourth quarter (again).

CHICAGO POPE

HOW WHAT WHY HOW

OH BOY

the cheese-grating fan!!

WOW

Well, this is a pretty disastrous night for the Bears.

Phenomenal catch. My god.

Bryce Young rn

This game is awesome.

🎧 NEW Rushing The Field 🎧 @mrjoshuaperry and I break down Indiana's rout of Oregon & Miami's thrilling win over Ole Miss. Plus, we start to break down the national championship matchup & discuss the state of the sport as a whole: podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/i...

“From the outhouse to the penthouse, baby!” My column on the unbeaten Indiana Hoosiers, who have no weaknesses — and sure feel inevitable: www.nbcsports.com/college-foot...

Heard Indiana fans talking about the insane secondary ticket market for the national championship game last night and omg (via StubHub)

Indiana — yes, Indiana! — is one win away from its first national championship. And we shouldn’t be surprised the Hoosiers are here … because they’re the best team in CFB. Curt Cignetti has built himself a juggernaut. COLUMN: www.nbcsports.com/college-foot...

Indiana opened as a touchdown favorite in the national title game. At some point typing facts about the 2025 Hoosiers will stop feeling like I'm telling you I just saw a UFO

Dan Lanning on Indiana: "There's not a weakness in their game. They run the ball well. They stop the run well. They throw the ball well. They defend the pass well. They're great on special teams. So, you see a really complete team, a well-coached team."

Mark Cuban, on the field postgame: “From the outhouse to the penthouse, baby! That’s the IU Hoosiers!”

Indiana vs. Miami: First thoughts on a most unexpected CFP National Championship matchup: www.nbcsports.com/college-foot...

It’ll be Indiana vs. Miami for a national championship.

Fernando Mendoza is 17-of-20 for 177 yards and five touchdowns in a national semifinal game. Can probably add a bullet point to the ol' LinkedIn profile.

oh my god lol

college football is in unprecedented times (complimentary)

fan on the videoboard had a "resting Cig face" t-shirt

I just don't know what you do if your'e Oregon right now. There's still a quarter and a half to play!

Pat Coogan recovers the Fernando Mendoza fumble, and the IU crowd chants "Coooooog"

Curt Cignetti, up 35-7 in the CFP semifinals, looks totally pissed off on the sidelines because of a false start.

HALFTIME: Indiana 35, Oregon 7. The Hoosiers are 30 minutes away from playing for a national championship.

If I'm Carson Beck, I'm having nightmares every night between now and Jan. 19.

If Indiana fans are looking for something to do at halftime, may I recommend my sit-down with Curt Cignetti from November? We talked about when he realized he had a team that could do something special & how he plans to keep Indiana rolling: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vCj...

34-7 Indiana. It is still the first half. Somehow.

Curt Cignetti turned the losingest program in college football history into a wagon.

It is still the first half.

Charlie Becker has been absolutely unbelievable over the second half of this season. Indiana has so many guys that can beat you.

Dante Moore is having a nightmare of a first half.

It is hard enough to beat a team like Indiana, which famously does not beat itself. Spotting the Hoosiers two touchdowns does not seem wise.

Indiana has scored 14 points off turnovers in the first half — and the Hoosiers lead by 14 points.

Dante Moore with another disastrous play. Ball gets knocked loose from his hand by his running back, and Indiana gets the ball on the three-yard line.

Near-disaster for Indiana as Mendoza gets the ball punched out (but recovers it after it bobbles). First big moment for the Oregon defense.

Fernando Mendoza evades pressure and picks up 21 yards with his legs. This Indiana-heavy crowd loved that.

End of the first quarter: Indiana 14, Oregon 7.
