Dave Damoshek called me Finland.

I would say that it felt right originally in the aftermath of what Indiana did to Oregon because that was such a beatdown and Indiana looked so dominant.

Obviously, the line has dropped.

I think that's an appropriate reaction because it is in Miami's home stadium.

I think it's going to be closer than people realize, but I also understand that most people are just watching Indiana football for the first time ever.

The first time they saw Indiana play was against Alabama.

And so you're most likely looking at those two results and saying, this is the best football team I've ever seen in my life, where Miami has looked great in the playoffs, but they're not playing games like that.

So I think it's just sort of an overreaction without the context of what Indiana has looked like this whole year, where people are talking about them and something we sort of talked about before the show of like the greatest team ever.

If you watch them this season, they had a lot of close games that could have gone another way.

We did not go to that one, but that one was their closest.

If my sweet, sweet Mark Ranowski had not gotten hurt, Indiana would have a loss.

That hurt a lot.

We played a lot better than them, but it's cool.

I've gotten over it.

She said.

They did make it to the playoffs last year and they only lost two games last season.

So I don't actually think that's that ridiculous of a statement because that going into this season, the big narrative for Indiana was, was it a fluke or was it, you know, truly something that's sustainable?

Yeah, it's one of those things where like Indiana is so historically bad at football that like you need more than a one year sample size to buy in.

And they've proven that.

So I actually don't think that's that ridiculous of a statement.
