Why Hoosiers’ Title Game Strategy Might Surprise Everyone This Year
Miami put together a great season, and will either end it at 14-2 or 13-3. Both should be considered great successes. To be honest, the story around Miami was if they should even be in the playoffs or not. I would hope by now that they’ve cleared up any questions around that, but I’m sure there are still some people who would say this would be the same path if Notre Dame was in it or someone else could’ve beaten them. The reality is that the Hurricanes have looked great in the playoffs, even if they’ve also gotten a bit lucky. Miami has played three College Football Playoff games, with a low-scoring win over Texas A&M 10-3. That wasn’t much of a surprise, but the next game against Ohio State was a surprise. They established their dominance on defense and held the Buckeyes to just 14 points. The most recent game, against Ole Miss on the 8th gave them the path to this game. The game was fairly boring for the first three quarters, if we are being honest. The fourth quarter was explosive, though. There were back and forth scores with alternating leads. Ole Miss had the ball with 18 seconds left after Carson Beck ran in untouched for a score. The Rebels had a chance to win, and a very questionable no call on the final possession gave the Hurricanes the lead. Not taking anything away from Miami, because that fourth quarter was played without a few of their best defenders due to injury and targeting.Â
