2026 CFP Showdown: Will Indiana’s Dream Run Rewrite History or Will Miami Crush Their Hopes?

2026 CFP Showdown: Will Indiana's Dream Run Rewrite History or Will Miami Crush Their Hopes?

I’m old enough to remember the 2000-02 Hurricanes, who had the greatest three-year run in my lifetime. Over that span, Miami won 34 straight games, including the 2001 national championship, and was an -11 to -12 favorite to repeat as champions vs. Ohio State in the 2002 title game. The ‘Canes had several future NFL Pro Bowlers on those teams, and a few future Hall of Famers. 

Then, the Buckeyes shocked the world and upset The U, which is one of the 10 biggest upsets I’ve ever seen. And it wasn’t like Ohio State outplayed Miami in the 2002 Fiesta Bowl. In fact, the Hurricanes “won the box score”, and the Buckeyes won on mostly dumb luck. I mean, they had 3.7 yards per play, and their quarterback completed 33.3% of his passes for 122 yards.
