BONUS FLASHBACK EPISODELast year a largely unknown QB from Cal-Berkeley showed up in Bloomington to lead Indiana's offense in Year 2 of the Cignetti Era. One year later, that same QB is a household name across America... Fernando Mendoza.Shortly after arriving at IU, Fernando was kind enough to join the Hysterics for an in-depth conversation, touching on everything from his family and childhood, to his love of Star Wars, to why he chose to join his brother Alberto in playing for Coach Cig.It was impossible to predict at the time of this interview that Fernando would go on to win the Heisman Trophy as he and his teammates went undefeated, winning both the Big Ten and National Championships, and forever securing their place not just in the hearts of Hoosier nation, but amongst the greatest stories in the history of sports. After this conversation, however, it was very easy to understand that Fernando is an absolutely special human being... warm, funny, intelligent and inspiring... and someone we'd all be very proud to have represent Indiana University.If you prefer to watch this flashback episode, please visit @hoosierhysterics on Youtube.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's Wednesday, January 21st, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Nigerian Muslims kidnapped 160 people, many of whom are Christians Armed bandits raided three church services in Nigeria on Sunday. The suspected Fulani Muslim militants kidnapped over 160 people in Kaduna State. Morning Star News reports it could be the largest mass kidnapping of Christian farmers in the area. Rev. Joseph John Hayab is the chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria for the country's north. He told media outlets, “The terrorists invaded the churches while worship services were on. They held the worshippers hostage and marched them out into the bushes.” An eyewitness told TruthNigeria, “It was around 10 a.m. on Sunday. I was in our Evangelical Church Winning All church when we suddenly heard gunshots everywhere. The gunmen were shouting that everyone should lie down or be killed.” In addition, he said some of the assailants wore black robes with black head turbans, and others were outfitted with “shabby-looking Nigerian Army camouflage uniforms.” The man and his 10-year-old son escaped through a window while the Muslim assailants were forcing the congregation out. Sadly, local police are acting as if nothing happened. Psalm 14:4 asks, “Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and do not call on the LORD?” UK court: Men not allowed in female changing room A court in the United Kingdom ruled against a hospital's transgender policy last week. The landmark ruling said that Darlington Memorial Hospital discriminated against eight female nurses. The nurses simply objected to a man, pretending to be a woman, from using their changing room. The Christian Legal Centre supported the nurses in the case. Andrea Williams, Chief Executive of the Christian Legal Centre, commented, “The [National Health System] and the government should now give up their sabotage of clear judicial decisions and abide by the law which acknowledges that men are men and women are women.” Britain tracks new Christian songs Britain's Official Charts Company is launching a new official singles chart for Christian music this month. AStepFWD, the organization behind the U.K. Christian Charts, has partnered with the Official Charts Company to introduce the Official Christian & Gospel Singles Chart. Christian Today reports the chart will “formally recognize the growing impact of faith-based music within the wider U.K. music landscape.” 10,000 Christians gather in France's March for Life Around 10,000 people gathered in Paris on Sunday for France's annual March for Life. AUDIO: (Marchers chanting for life in French.) The event highlighted opposition to legislation that would legalize euthanasia and assisted suicide. Listen to this testimony from a French marcher through a translator. POST-ABORTIVE WOMAN: “I had an abortion under circumstances where my fiancé forced me to do it so that we could get married, and it literally broke me. But God saved me. God healed me and helped me rebuild my life and turned the worst event of my life into a source of greater strength.” Marie-Lys Pellissier is the spokeswoman for the March for Life in France. The 24-year-old said, “Going out into the street seems essential to us. It is the only moment in the year when we can publicly express our opposition to abortion and euthanasia and propose concrete solutions. The rest of the time, the media never give us the floor.” Trump announces tariffs against goods from Denmark On Saturday, President Donald Trump announced tariffs on all goods from Denmark. President Trump said the tariff will be in force “until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland.” The 10% tariff will also apply to all goods from Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland. 70% of Americans diagnosed with cancer survive More Americans are surviving cancer, according to new findings from the American Cancer Society. The report found the five-year relative survival rate for all cancers combined reached 70% for people diagnosed during 2015-2021. That's up from about 50% in the 1970s. The survival rates for people diagnosed with more fatal cancers is up significantly as well from the 1990s. Gallup poll: Americans trust nurses, not telemarketers Gallup released their latest Honesty and Ethics Survey of the professions that Americans trust the most. U.S. adults have the most trust in nurses, military veterans, medical doctors, and pharmacists. They have the least trust in members of Congress and telemarketers. Only 27% of Americans have high levels of trust in clergy, down from 64% in 2001. Hoosier quarterback gives glory to God And finally, the Indiana Hoosiers won their first college football national championship on Monday. ANNOUNCER: “He's gonna take off and run. Mendoza weaves his way first and diving toward the end zone. Touchdown! A century of futility is forgotten. The Indiana Hoosiers are the kings of college football. The 2026 college football national champions: Coach Curt Cignetti and the Indiana Hoosiers!” The Hoosiers beat the Miami Hurricanes 27 to 21 to cap off an undefeated season. The team's historic victory represents a turnaround led by head coach Curt Cignetti over the past two years. For decades, the Hoosiers were known as the “losingest team” in college football. Members of the tight-knit team are now known for sharing their faith. Quarterback Fernando Mendoza is an outspoken Christian who also won the Heisman Trophy last year, college football's top individual award. Listen to his comments after the championship victory. MENDOZA: “This victory is so sweet for everybody, for the entire Hoosier nation, but also it's super sweet for myself. I was a two-star recruit coming out of high school. I got declined to walk on offer to the University of Miami. Full circle moment here. Playing in Miami for all the friends and family. I can't thank Coach [Curt] Cignetti enough, and Coach [Chandler] Whitmer and Coach [Ola] Adams for taking a chance on me. I just give all the glory to God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31 says, "Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God."

The Magic of the Five: College Football's Most Iconic Number?In the cathedral of college football, certain numbers carry a weight that transcends the fabric they're stitched onto. But while the "No. 1" is often a self-proclaimed title and "No. 7" belongs to the gunslingers, the Number 5 has always hit differently. It is the digit of the ultimate "X-factor"—the jersey worn by the players who didn't just break tackles, they broke the spirit of opposing fanbases.From the breathtaking North-South lightning of Reggie Bush in the Coliseum to the dual-threat dominance of Vince Young on the fast tracks of the Big 12, wearing the number five has historically been a signal that something impossible was about to happen. It represents a specific lineage of speed, swagger, and "Heisman moments."But when you look back at the decades of highlight reels and championship rings, who truly wore it best? We are diving into the archives to rank the legends who transformed a simple single digit into a symbol of collegiate immortality.Top Candidates Not in the Hall of Fame:Pat White (West Virginia)A pioneer of the spread option offense, White became the first quarterback in college football history to start and win four consecutive bowl games. His incredible rushing ability transformed West Virginia into a national powerhouse and set the blueprint for the modern dual-threat quarterback.Christian McCaffrey (Stanford)McCaffrey shattered Barry Sanders' single-season all-purpose yards record in 2015, proving that a running back could be just as dangerous as a receiver and return specialist. His versatility at Stanford forced a re-evaluation of how Heisman-caliber players are measured across multiple phases of the game.Manti Te'o (Notre Dame)Te'o was the emotional and defensive heartbeat of Notre Dame's 2012 undefeated regular season, becoming one of the most decorated defensive players in history by sweeping nearly every major award. He remains a symbol of the "linebacker as a superstar," finishing as a rare Heisman Trophy runner-up from the defensive side of the ball.Larry Johnson (Penn State) Larry Johnson delivered one of the most dominant single seasons in college history in 2002, becoming only the ninth player to rush for over 2,000 yards in a regular season. His explosive senior year earned him the Maxwell and Doak Walker Awards, cementing his legacy as one of the premier power backs in Big Ten history.Heisman Winners of Jersey 5Paul Hornung (Notre Dame)Known as "The Golden Boy," Hornung holds the unique distinction of being the only player to win the Heisman Trophy while playing for a losing team (2-8 in 1956). He was a versatile "triple-threat" who led his team in passing, rushing, scoring, and kickoff returns.Reggie Bush (USC)One of the most electric playmakers in history, Bush was the centerpiece of the mid-2000s USC dynasty, combining elite speed and agility to redefine the "all-purpose" back. His 2005 season remains legendary for its highlight-reel runs and its role in keeping USC at the pinnacle of the sport during the BCS era.Jayden Daniels (LSU/Arizona State)A dual-threat sensation, Jayden Daniels became the first player in FBS history to pass for 12,000 yards and rush for 3,000 yards in a career. His 2023 Heisman Trophy-winning season at LSU was statistically historic, as he led the nation in total offense and set the record for the highest passer rating in a single season.Jameis Winston (Florida State)Jameis Winston made history in 2013 as the youngest player ever to win the Heisman Trophy while leading Florida State to an undefeated season and a BCS National Championship. During his two years as a starter, he lost only one game and restored the Seminoles to a position of national dominance through
Nothing fancy. No high school superstars. Just play hard every down. Execute your plays better than the other guys. Run each play with incredible attention to detail at your position. Indiana did just that in a season-opening win over Old Dominion on August 30. The methodical Hoosiers left some big tractor trailer tire imprints on one football opponent after another this season. So it was eastbound and down, loaded up and truckin’ for the Indiana Hoosiers all the way to Miami, Florida for the 12-team College Football Playoffs season finale. Indiana delivered once again in Game #16 against a very talented group of Miami Hurricanes in the national championship game on Monday night. The unbeaten Indiana Hoosiers were matched against a physically larger and very resilient Miami Hurricanes team. IU finally applied its patented sleeper hold with a late pass interception in the final minute to secure a 27-21 victory and the school’s first college football national title in 139 years. Indiana finished with the first 16-0 record in FBS history. The Hoosiers subdued their three College Football Playoff match-ups by a cumulative score of 121-46. IU returned to Bloomington, Indiana with a championship trophy in hand to show to the school’s jubilant fans who – like so many – still can’t believe this just happened. If you liked exceptional defense, this game was definitely for you! By early in the fourth quarter, Indiana and Miami (which finished 13-3) each had been able to muster only 220 yards in total offense. This often-times brutal defensive battle was anything but boring, though. The final quarter would produce the same number of points by both teams (24) as the amount scored in all three of the previous quarters. Indiana led 17-7 as the final period began. The Hoosiers and their Heisman Trophy quarterback Fernando Mendoza were pushed around all night by a burly NFL-quality Miami defensive front. The Dolphins would be wise to sign a few of these college football warriors for their pro team this spring in the NFL draft. The Hurricanes marching band kept their relentless defense fired-up all night by playing the Star Wars’ “Darth Vader March” over and over. I almost expected to see a TV camera shot revealing Emperor Palpatine as Miami’s defensive coordinator. The Canes put up a tremendous defensive effort against Indiana. But Indiana’s defense was up to the task in this championship game as well. They swarmed to every tackle and shut-out Miami for the entire first half as Indiana took a 10-0 halftime advantage. The Hurricanes’ running game was nearly invisible for much of the night. However, Miami’s Mark Fletcher, Jr. finally broke through the stubborn IU defensive line during the third quarter for a 57-yard score. That put the Canes on the scoreboard and narrowed Indiana’s lead to 10-7. The Hoosiers defense came to the rescue minutes later by blocking a Miami punt for a touchdown to restore a ten-point IU advantage at 17-7. Both teams’ offenses finally came alive in the final quarter Former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck finally located a few open receivers and quickly moved the Hurricanes down the field. A second Mark Fletcher, Jr. touchdown run cut Indiana’s lead to 17-14 on the very first play of the fourth quarter. The Hoosiers would answer that rally. Indiana made this game even more exciting during a tense fourth quarter as they successfully completed two gutty fourth down calls. Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza surprised the Canes’ defense with a fourth down quarterback draw play. He bounced off two different Miami tacklers en route to a 13-yard touchdown score. That gave IU a 24-14 lead with nine minutes to play. This game had become much like a very tense tennis match. Back and forth they went during the final period. Neither team gave up after the other team scored. Miami’s passing game responded once again. Elusive running back Malachi Toney came alive with a couple of key pass receptions during the drive. He raced through and around several IU defenders for a 22-yard score to cut Indiana’s lead to 24-21 with a little more than six minutes left. Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza then connected on a couple of clutch third down pass completions to move the Hoosiers down the field one more time. A well-conceived series of runs and passes for first downs helped IU eat-up precious minutes from the fourth quarter game clock. The Hoosiers opted to kick a 35-yard field goal to extend their lead to 27-21 with less than two minutes to go in the game. Miami now had one final chance to win this game. The Hurricanes’ last offensive possession quickly advanced the ball all the way to midfield with under a minute to play. A long pass downfield from quarterback Carson Beck was then intercepted by Indiana inside its ten yard line to seal the victory for the Hoosiers and sink Miami’s title hopes. That last minute pass interception by Indiana was the only turnover committed by either team in this year’s championship game. By the way, did someone steal the referees’ whistles at this football game? Millions of fans (like me) watching on television yelled, “Pass Interference!” or “Late hit – throw a flag!” at various points of this football game. Did the referees swallow their whistles during Monday’s game? Miami’s defensive backs were grabbing the uniforms, shoulder pads, arms, and hands of Indiana’s receivers all night long with only a few of the most obvious infractions penalized. IU’s defense responded in kind by grabbing a few Miami receivers on some pass plays, too. At least two different Miami players should have been whistled for delivering late hits out-of-bounds in this game. Another quite obvious targeting head shot was delivered by a Miami defensive player to Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza. Nary a tweet was heard. Miami (one of the most penalized teams in college football this season) was whistled for only seven penalties and 60 yards. Indiana chalked-up just five penalties for 38 yards. Perhaps the title game’s referees may have carpooled to a local “Vision for Less” optometrist to be fitted for new glasses and forgot that this game was underway. Let’s give the officials credit for being consistent, though. They allowed both teams get away with far too much in the title game. Thankfully, no one appeared to be seriously injured during any of those plays. Regardless of the sport, games should be officiated in the same way as contests are called during the regular season. This officiating crew stunk it up on Monday night. “Hoosiers II – The Football Edition” is likely going to be filmed soon That fantastic 1986 sports movie about a small Indiana high school basketball team winning the state championship may have been topped by the 16-0 national champion University of Indiana Hoosiers’ football team. Long-time assistant coach Curt Cignetti finally received his first head coaching job in 2011 at a Division II college in western Pennsylvania. He was age 50 at the time. He quickly transformed that football team into a winner. A move to North Carolina produced similar results for FCS member Elon University outside of Greensboro. Curt Cignetti then took over at James Madison University in northwestern Virginia. He led the Dukes to a 52-9 record over his five seasons as the team’s head coach. Perennial football wallflower Indiana then picked this late-blooming coach-turned-miracle-worker in 2024. In two seasons, IU has grown into a college football monster. Coach Curt Cignetti’s two seasons in Bloomington have produced a record of 27-2 with two College Football Playoff appearances. This was topped-off by Monday night’s well-deserved national championship earned by Indiana’s 16-0 team. What is 64-year old Curt Cignetti’s secret formula? Indiana had only eight players who were considered 4-star or 5-star athletes in high school. Quarterback Fernando Mendoza was labeled as a “2-star” prospect coming out of a high school just a few miles from the University of Miami campus. He wasn’t offered a scholarship by “The U” so he headed west to accept his only big-time offer to play at Cal. Mendoza would transfer to Indiana this season to team-up with his younger brother Alberto (also a quarterback). The rest is now history. Coach Curt Cignetti assembled a group of talented underdogs who were willing to work harder and longer than players on most other teams. More importantly, the Hoosiers followed the directions of the Indiana coaching staff and became a model of precision execution on offense, defense, and special teams. This year’s Indiana squad performed together in unison like a championship basketball team. Every player knew his role and executed flawlessly during most games. The coaches smartly exploited the weaknesses seen in each week’s opponents. The preparation and execution of the players and coaches helped this team to operate like a finely-tuned machine from week to week. Indiana’s offense played keep-away from the opposing defenses. The Hoosiers dominated time of possession (including 36 minutes to 24 for Miami on Monday night). This team’s devastating blocking, power running game, and pinpoint short-to-intermediate passing game wore down opponents every week. Winning the time of possession without committing turnovers helped lead Indiana to a national championship. Indiana won 16 straight games by repeating the same formula over and over again There was nothing fancy about Indiana’s football game plan. They won every game by executing their plays better than the opposing team did. Coach Nick Saban won seven college football national championships (six at Alabama and his first at LSU). Curt Cignetti had been a very successful assistant coach at Alabama under Coach Saban from 2007 through 2010. Cignetti’s recruiting class of 2008 at Alabama would result in six NFL first round draft choices. Now that Indiana and its head coach have climbed to the top of the college football mountain, will the Hoosiers be able to remain there? Coach Saban (now a commentator for ESPN) said Monday before the title game that it will now become harder for Coach Cignetti to find new players with the same hunger to win as this year’s team. “Now everybody wants to come because of what your program can do for them (the top players),” said Saban. “That dynamic changes everything dramatically – in terms of how you’ve got to motivate your players and how you put together your team.” Another factor in Indiana’s championship season was the character of the players. Some of today’s NIL transfer “stars” may not fit-in with the selfless, team-oriented demands being made by Coach Curt Cignetti and his impressive coaching staff. Indiana’s precision style of football execution should keep the Hoosiers near the top for years to come. The team’s now-champion head football coach has often said, “If you keep your nose down and keep working, anything is possible!” Congratulations, Indiana! The best team won.

Venus Williams was up 4-0 in the third - but somehow collapsed in technique and serve - and lost. The Open had a record breaking crowd of 73,000 on the first day, with many of the fans rushing to see Alex Eala the young Filipino, who has become a breakout star on the WTA Tour with the amount of fans anxious to see her play. From Hong Kong to Melbourne they are driven by Ella's tenacity. She has given her country a lot to cheer.

Imagine leaving Earth for two years… and coming back to find Indiana football sitting on top of the college football world.In this episode of Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges, Norm Hitzges takes listeners through one of the most astonishing transformations the sport has ever seen: the Indiana Hoosiers playing for a national championship. A program long defined by losses, obscurity, and broken coaching careers is now on the brink of an undefeated season — something no team in college football history has ever achieved at this scale.Norm breaks down how head coach Kurt Signetti engineered the turnaround, from importing winning culture and key players from James Madison to convincing quarterback Fernando Mendoza to transfer — a move that resulted in a Heisman Trophy winner and a projected No. 1 NFL draft pick. The episode dives deep into the numbers behind Indiana's dominance, including defensive performances that have held every opponent under 24 points and statistical margins usually reserved for dynasties.Norm also offers context for just how absurd this rise is, comparing Indiana's long history of losses to its sudden place among college football's elite. Along the way, Mary Hitzges joins with sponsor messages and reflections, grounding the episode in the familiar rhythm of Just Wondering while the story itself remains anything but familiar.This isn't hype. It's perspective — and a reminder that sometimes sports still manage to surprise us.Chapters00:00:00 – Just wondering about Indiana playing for a national title00:01:22 – Has college football ever seen anything like this?00:02:09 – Indiana's history as a program where careers went to die00:03:10 – Kurt Signetti arrives and brings a winning blueprint00:04:04 – From 713 losses to Big Ten dominance00:05:10 – The numbers that make this season unbelievable00:06:31 – No opponent scores more than 24 points00:07:17 – The astronaut analogy: disbelief in real time00:08:04 – Miami's puncher's chance and final test00:09:01 – Bob's Steak & Chop House sponsor break00:09:38 – Full Moon Healing Balm and personal fixes00:10:16 – Fluent Financial and closing reflections00:10:38 – Why this story may never be repeated Check us out: patreon.com/sunsetloungedfwInstagram: sunsetloungedfwTiktok: sunsetloungedfwX: SunsetLoungeDFWFB: Sunset Lounge DFW

There's a lot of these floating around out there, but this is the last one you're going to need. Michael Felder and Stephen Hartzell empty the clip on Monday's natty, complete with a heavy dose of 'what it will take' for the underdog Miami to shock the world. Felder Five is loaded, as per usual, with some key points of emphasis ahead of the big game; can Mark Fletcher keep doing what he's been doing through the first three games on the ground? What about all of those single-digit studs along the Miami defense, and are they going to be able to disrupt the Heisman Trophy winner? Which if Indiana's pass-catchers are going to emerge as the ultimate weapon against a Miami secondary that can be got? Loads to get into, and the fellas do it for the final time ahead of toe meets leather down in South Florida.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The U is HERE! The University of Miami Hurricanes have made it back to the National Championship game for the first time since the 2002 season. Indiana is a juggernaut of a team and would be the first team to go 16-0 in FBS college football history if they win this game. Indiana's offense is led by Heisman Trophy winner and South Florida native, Fernando Mendoza. They have outstanding players at WR and RB. They have a really good offensive line. Miami's defense will have its work cut out for it. The Miami offense will face a defense that they call the "Illusion Defense," because by the time the QB has the snap in their hands, the defense has changed its look. Will Carson Beck, Mali, Fletcher, and the Big Miami OL be able to score on Indiana's defense? Will Miami's NFL-like defensive line and the rest of the defense be able to contain the Hoosiers' high-octane offense? We answer all of these questions and more.

The 1976 Rose Bowl wasn't necessarily a game for Ohio State to win, but rather a coronation for their National Championship. They were facing Dick Vermeil's Bruins in Pasadena, having already battered UCLA in the regular season, 41-20 at the L.A. Coliseum. The Buckeyes were favored by 15/5 points to do it again and end their season unbeaten, untied and unblemished. However, with an opportunity to play the top ranked Buckeyes a 2nd time, Vermeil practiced hard instituting double days on his Bruins team as if it was the beginning of the season all over again. And in front of a national audience and 105,464 fans at the Rose Bowl, Ohio State went into halftime of the rematch with just a 3-0 lead. That's when Vermeil called an audible. His vaunted option offense which had scored 20 points off OSU in the first matchup, the most Ohio State had given up all season, hadn't done a thing in the first 30 minutes of the New Year's Day game. So he told his quarterback John Sciarra that in the 3rd quarter they were scrapping the gameplan… they were going to open things up and start passing. And it worked. Sciarra connected with Wally Henry for two scores the 2nd one covering 67 yards and UCLA had a shocking 16-3 lead over the heavily favored Buckeyes. A 54-yard TD run in the 4th quarter by Wendell Tyler made it 23-10 Bruins and that is how it would finish. The last Rose Bowl Woody Hayes would ever coach ended in a dramatic loss to Vermeil and his Bruins led by Rose Bowl Game MVP John Sciarra who finished the game completing 13 of his 19 passes for 212 yards and 2 touchdowns. 50 years later, Sciarra recalls how he could have been the Heisman Trophy winner had the Bruins won the first meeting instead of the second one with Ohio State and how he would never trade the Heisman for that Rose Bowl win he guided his team to. He remembers how he led the team into a meeting to complain to their coach about the two-a-day practices leading up to the Rose Bowl… and tells us Vermeil's shocking answer to them that paved the way for their win. He also recollects how at the half his coach told him they were going to make adjustments and to be ready to let ‘er rip in the 2nd half. And he tells a great story about how his best buddy and fellow former UCLA QB Mark Harmon cast him in a movie and the role he was born to play! But mostly, he reminisces about the greatest half of football he and his Bruin teammates ever played on New Year's Day, 1976 on the Past Our Prime podcast. Learn more about your ad choices.

Southeastern 16's Jay Greeson and Chris Lee power-rank the four teams remaining in the College Football Playoff, which are Indiana, Oregon, Miami and Ole Miss. Topics include the cases for and against each team, which are: Miami has the country's best pass-rush, led by elite guys in Akheem Mesidor and Rueben Bain Jr. It has outstanding, play-making defensive backs in Keionte Scott and Bryce Fitzgerald. On offense, it has potential NFL first-round tackle Francis Mauigoa, one of the country's best receivers in Malachi Toney and a future NFL running back in Mark Fletcher, not to mention an experienced quarterback in Carson Beck. However, the Hurricanes lost to a pair of teams that are unranked in the final regular-season AP poll in SMU and Louisville, the latter at home. Indiana is the nation's only unbeaten team and perhaps the most statistically-dominant one, too. Not only did the Hoosiers have the Heisman Trophy winner in Fernando Mendoza, but they've got all-American and all-conference players at every position on the field and were strong in offense, defense and special teams. And, of course, Indiana has coach Curt Cignetti, who may be the coach most suited to win in the modern college football environment. The Hoosiers did not have a statistical weakness for the season. However, they were more mortal in spells, such as a 20-15 win at Iowa in which they had 337 yards of total offense and a 27-24 win at Penn State in which they trailed late into the fourth quarter and were out-gained, 336-326. Oregon can challenge Indiana's statistical dominance in some ways. The Ducks' yards-per-play difference of 2.5 was the same as the Hoosiers and like IU, is strong in the trenches. Oregon also has star power in quarterback Dante Moore and four all-Americans: tight end Kenyon Sadiq, offensive linemen Emanual Pregnon and Iapani Lalolu and defensive lineman Dillon Thieneman. That defense was also salty against Texas Tech, shutting out the Red Raiders in their first playoff game. However, Oregon's case for the top spot is hurt by the fact the Ducks lost 30-20 to Indiana in the regular season. Ole Miss wasn't supposed to be here under rookie coach Pete Golding. But the Rebels have buy-in and confidence, a star quarterback in Trinidad Chambliss who's gotten better as the season has progressed, a wide receiving corps that spreads teams out, a stud running back in Kewan Lacy and a defense that wasn't outstanding but was consistent. And speaking of consistency, the Rebels were held under 417 yards of offense (that was their lone loss to Georgia during the regular season). The Rebels were more consistent than dominant. They gained 6.7 yards per play and gave up 5.3. &COLLAR Use promo code SEC16 for 16% off!

Taylor Lewan kicks things off by addressing the Sherrone Moore situation at Michigan, while Will Compton gives his thoughts on the video of Vanderbilt’s Diego Pavia partying with a “F*** Indiana” sign after losing the Heisman Trophy. The boys then break down their thoughts on Fernando Mendoza and wrap up the intro with some Spicy Tier Talk. Dion then joins and starts off hot with the story behind the creation of The Shnowman. He explains what makes the Bills one of the most dominant teams in the NFL, his ongoing battles with PFF and sack statistics, and what it takes to hold it down in the trenches. Dion also breaks down Josh Allen’s gameday antics, leadership style, and how No. 17 flips the switch when the lights come on. The boys dive into life in the trenches, elite pass rushers, and what it’s really like lining up across from Myles Garrett as he chases sack records. From locker room stories and AFC battles to mindset, preparation, and playing with swagger, Dion keeps it real the entire time.
