Beanie Wells: “That’s a good question. We’ve seen Miami have home games that are half full.

I love how these idiots keep repeating this crap from the past as if it's still relevant.
Funny, Beanie Wells never played us, let alone in Miami.

The only time OSU played at Miami was 2011 and we beat their a$$.

I was at that game and attendance was 66K.

I was there too, and pretty sure it was sold out.

Side note - My husband and I were standing in line and there were two Ohio State fans in front of us who were absolutely dying from the South Florida humidity (early September game, for those of you that weren't there). They were so miserable and both looked like they were about to keel over from a heart attack. We started chatting and they could not believe that we were barely breaking a sweat while they were soaked to the bone.

And this was before the game even started. 🤣
 
It’s incredible how people that have played football do not understand the gameplan from our ends against chambliss.
If you've followed any of this **** that clown wells has always talked **** about us. His ***** clearly left him for someone down south. Just listen to these clowns comments about half packed games they've been to. (like the ****** national championship would have a half packed stadium if we had to fill it...) It's an expensive ticket and plenty of Indiana fans will be there but honestly this game being at home is one of the things I like least about this match up. I don't want comfort. We've embraced that road underdog role. I don't think it was a coincidence how locked in we've been since we hit the road
 
Could have easily lost to Penn State, Iowa, and Ohio State.

The first 2 did it with physical ground games and controlling the LOS with just a weight and physicality difference in the trenches.

I think they’re in for a rude awakening if Moten and at least one of Damari/OJ can play the first half. Making the more talented team a huge underdog and giving them no shot is exactly what I want. We play significantly better as a 3-10 point underdog.

It’ll be a challenge, but as long as we don’t self implode like Oregon, I’m pretty confident we can win this one.
 
And UM is not?? Not to totally discount Indiana's schedule, but this is a joke. This guy must have inspired Cardale Jones to follow in his footsteps to Taint and not "play school." ******* dip****.
Beanie was a 6’3 230 pound ***** of a running back
Soooofffttttt *** runner
 
Crazy because most people are acknowledging that we have an advantage at both lines of scrimmage and then they say we'll get blown out.
It’s their emotion
They love the story of these “misfits” w weird coach
And it clouds logic
 
I sincerely wonder if people in the media know what they’re looking at or even watch games/plays.
Indiana is a really good team, going to get that out of the way.

This hype came by the way they dismantled Bama (who shouldn't even had been in the playoff). They think Bama is still the same program that Saban left them, and that if you can blow the doors off Bama, you're the second coming of greatness.

To compare Indiana to LSU 2019, which the latter is probably the closest you'll ever get to the 01 Canes, is just crazy.
 
A pair of CBS Sports analysts are betting heavy against the Canes.

Former Ohio State running back Beanie Wells and former James Madison quarterback Ben DiNucci recently provided their analysis and predictions for the Championship Game.

Ben DiNucci: “I’m watching the Miami front seven versus Indiana’s offense. Indiana has scored 50 points seven different times this year. If you can’t pressure Fernando Mendoza, speed up his process, and force third-and-long, it’s going to be a long night. Bain and Mesidor have 19 sacks between them. They struggled to pressure Chambliss against Ole Miss. They have to speed Mendoza up.”

Beanie Wells: “On the flip side, I’m watching Indiana’s front seven against Miami’s run game. Miami has rushed for 175, 153, and 191 yards the last three weeks. Mark Fletcher Jr. has been dominant. Can Rolijah Hardy and Aiden Fisher slow that down? Because if Miami can’t run the football, they don’t win this game. That run game is the catalyst. It starts with Fletcher’s legs.”

Studio Host: “Miami leads the nation in sack differential at plus-28. Indiana leads the nation in turnover differential at plus-21. That will matter. Hard Rock Stadium holds more than 65,000 fans and tickets are expensive. Beanie, how many Miami fans do you think will be there?”

Beanie Wells: “That’s a good question. We’ve seen Miami have home games that are half full. This is their first national championship in 25 years. You’d think they’d show up, but Indiana fans traveled well to Atlanta. It might be a lot of red in that building.”

Ben DiNucci: “You’ve got to pack the house. I know it’s not easy for students to get from campus to Miami Gardens, but don’t make excuses. You’re a great football team. Get to the games.”

Studio Host: “Indiana is a 7.5-point favorite. Beanie, who do you have?”

Beanie Wells: “Indiana. They’re the best team in the country. They’re disciplined and battle-tested. I’m taking Indiana.”

Ben DiNucci: “Indiana, plain and simple. They’ve been the best team from week one. They have the Heisman winner, the coach of the year, and they play complementary football. This is 2019 LSU. They’re steamrolling people. I’ve got Indiana.”

Studio Host: “Score prediction?”

Beanie Wells: “I’m going 35-10 Indiana.”

Ben DiNucci: “I’ll say 34-17 Indiana.”
Bookmark it.
 
So they're going to steamroll us by several touchdowns but could only manage 13 on a team we beat and scored 24 on. Okay, I'll believe it when I see it.

I remember, it was so hot and me and my wife were sitting lower deck, halfway between the field and HRS advert lighting. Every time they lit up, it felt like it got 10 degrees hotter.

Our Canes will see the Hoosiers at the 50 yd line and settle it.
