Indiana had the game in their hands.

2nd down and 1 yard to go ...... QB sneak, right ??? No, they line up in SHOTGUN FORMATION, and they get a 5-yard illegal motion penalty.

And that right there let Miami back into the game, a game in which they were virtually out of.

I'm glad that Indiana won, but it didn't have to come down to that ......that decision to operate from shotgun formation on 2nd down and 1 would have gone down as an all-time blunder if Miami had scored a TD on that final drive.

Well, that was my Super Bowl. Bring on the off-season. 😊

No doubt. If I had been guaranteed 2 years ago that in 2 years either IU would win a CF Natty or I would hit the Powerball for $1B then I would have just went ahead and quit my job the next day.

Still feels like a fever dream! It doesn't even seem like this is a real thing. Cigs and this team will have a full feature movie made about them. Unreal!

I think you need to give the lion's share of the blame to the OL who false started. Now if IU had lost 5 yards on a run out of shotgun there then I would agree with you.

Also, IU hanging on let the refs off the hook IMO as their calls were very much 1 sided in MIA's favor. Waiting to throw a flag on roughing the passer until MIA's final drive after ignoring MIA doing the same thing or worse to Mendoza all game (including what should have been a targeting call in the 1st quarter) for example.

No doubt. If there's ever been a better coaching job in sports than what Cigs has done at IU then I can't think of it. The only one that comes to mind that is close is Herb Brooks with the 1980 US men's hockey team.

It was 2nd down-and 1.

They had 3 chances to get 1 yard.

You don't get cute there. You simply line up in standard formation, and give your quarterback 3 chances to get 1 yard to end the game.

I'm not even an IU fan, but that's an amazing accomplishment for IU football(!). Undefeated season and national championship. It's like the Indianapolis Indians winning the world series or something.
