Indiana are national champions, and Galen Clavio and Scott Caulfield finally sit down to process what that means — on the field and emotionally — after Indiana's 27–21 championship win over Miami to complete an undefeated season.They break down the game itself: how Indiana weathered Miami's surges, why the Hoosiers' ability to respond every time was decisive, and how a collection of clutch plays from Fernando Mendoza, Charlie Becker, Omar Cooper Jr., Roman Hemby, Kellen Black, and the defense sealed the title.But this episode is also about the experience of Indiana football fandom — the long wait, the shared moments in Miami, Pasadena, Atlanta, and Bloomington, and why this championship feels different from simple joy. It's a reflection on belief, perspective, and what it's like when something you never quite expected finally arrives.

On CrimsonCast Ep. 1293, Galen Clavio and Scott Caulfield react to Indiana football's national breakout moment on 60 Minutes and what it says about the program's new place in the sport — including the small details that made the segment resonate with a broader audience.Then it's full Rose Bowl / College Football Playoff quarterfinal mode as Indiana draws Alabama. The guys break down what the Crimson Tide look like right now, including QB Ty Simpson, Alabama's passing game strengths, questions in the run game, and which personnel Indiana must account for. They also discuss the coaching chess match, including Kalen DeBoer and DC Kane Wommack, and why Indiana's structure under OC Mike Shanahan and DC Bryant Haines translates well to a neutral-site playoff environment.Finally, Galen and Scott step back to evaluate the College Football Playoff after another round of lopsided results — debating access, perception, and why “who belongs” conversations often reveal more about bias than football.
