More On The NFL Playoffs And The CFP Title Game. The Newest Additions To The MLB HOF.
The Miami Hurricanes' season ends with a national championship loss to Indiana, which caps a historic 16–0 season for the Hoosiers. Miami struggled early, getting shut out in the first half and having trouble on third down, but surged after halftime as the offense found rhythm and the defense came out firing, turning it into a compelling game. The guys credit Indiana's veteran group and point to Fernando Mendoza's crucial fourth-and-four QB run as a defining moment. The conversation then shifts to quarterback evaluations, from how NFL GMs will view Carson Beck to whether the Dolphins should pursue a veteran option rather than reaching in the draft, especially with a new GM who comes from a Packers background known for developing QBs.
The Miami Hurricanes' season ends in heartbreak with a national championship loss to Indiana, as Joe breaks down the final drive that ended with Carson Beck's interception while trying to win the game late. Miami battled back after an early deficit and had the ball with under two minutes left, a moment Joe says every Canes fan would have gladly taken before the game. Akheem Mesidor and Rueben Bain Jr. are praised for strong performances, while a blocked punt proved to be a critical turning point. Joe also credits Indiana's clutch plays, explains why he respects Beck taking a shot to win it, and briefly looks ahead to the transfer portal and the Dolphins' new era.
The Boston Sports Journal's Mike Giardi is back for another live show after the Patriots' win over the Texans in the divisional round. The guys reveal how the Pats' dynasty-era formula has brought them back to the AFC title game, what changes they've made on defense and how Drake Maye performed against a tough Texans defense before they look ahead to Sunday's championship game in Denver.

On Friday night, Indiana destroyed Oregon by a 56-22 score, leaving no doubt why the Hoosiers were the No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff. It was a dominant effort by Curt Cignetti, Fernando Mendoza, and a Hoosier defense that forced three first half turnovers. So dominant, in fact, that we're struggling to put it in historical context. In this episode, we walk back through the game, peek a bit ahead to the national championship game and, of course, give Dan a chance to sound off on a disappointing ending to Oregon's season.Support the show!: https://www.patreon.com/solidverbalSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
