Tariq’s Pick
Can Indiana finish off their perfect season? Can Miami pull off an unprecedented CFP and CFB upset? Either way, the winner of this game could start a new era of college football.
Indiana has been untouchable for 98% of the season. By now you know where they rank by the numbers, you know their impact players. You know the story of Fernando Mendoza, the demeanor of head coach Curt Cignetti. Are they prepared for this moment? A national championship, where they are the favorite, and it’s all right in front of them. They haven’t shown nerves all season, can they continue to be poised and prove to be capable of capping off the undefeated season.
Can Carson Beck finish his college career the way it (kinda) started? Beck is a two time champion but was on the bench for those games. Now he has his opportunity to prove to himself, his teammates, his supporters and doubters, that he can bring a National Championship BACK to the U. One of the notable college football programs but hasn’t won since the early 2000s. This is a story of perseverance, and potentially revival? College football is better with the U in real contention. They are a game away from legitimately being able to say “The U is back!” They have their work cut out for them as the Hoosiers have dominated every game of the last month. The Hurricanes have been the underdog going into each game, which team will cement their names in history?
Miami (FL) at Indiana -8.5. The Pick: Indiana 34 Miami (FL) 24
