ABOUT THIS EPISODE
How did the "losingest program" in college football history just go 16-0 and win the National Championship? 🏆
In this episode of Necessary Roughness, we break down the historic Indiana vs. Miami CFB Playoff National Championship. From being a 3-9 team just a few seasons ago to the first 16-0 powerhouse of the modern era, Curt Cignetti has pulled off the impossible.
We dive deep into:
✅ The "Heisman Play" from Mendoza that sealed the game.
✅ Why Miami fans feel ROBBED by the officiating.
✅ How Indiana silenced the "Basketball School" critics forever.
✅ Why the Big 10 has officially overtaken the SEC as the king of college football.
Is this the greatest sports turnaround of all time? We debate the stats, the coaching, and the future of these two programs. Drop a comment below: Was Indiana's run luck, or is Curt Cignetti the best coach in the country?
