I think they're out of their minds.

Miami got the ball back down six with just about two minutes to go last night.

It was their last chance.

And the crowd at the game in Miami was so loud that Miami couldn't snap the ball in time.

Throne Stadium, after the game, fans packed Kirkwood Avenue.

That's the main drag off of campus in Bloomington.

I think Indiana fans just probably thought this was literally never going to happen in their entire lives.

How could it even be possible to win the Big Ten with Ohio State and Michigan standing in the way, let alone a national title?

But here they are.

Yeah.

I mean, I think there's been this transformation in the sport over the last few years that has really paved the way for this run from Indiana.

I mean, there's no restrictions anymore or much fewer on players transferring from school to school.

Players can earn money now.

And so there's been a lot made of how Kurt Cignetti aggressively was recruiting transfers, more experienced players to come in and make an impact right away.

Indiana has also just invested more money into its football program.

And it just shows how quickly things can change, how schools that aren't your traditional powerhouses, like Alabama, Ohio State, can suddenly become contenders much more easily before.

You know, I'll tell you, Michelle, I'm a graduate of the University of Kansas.

That's another school that's way up high on that list of college football's most losses all time.

Fans of all sorts of schools are now asking themselves, why not us?

So congrats to Indiana fans.
