Someone asked me today "Do You Think They Have a Chance?"

It's almost like people are being baited into betting the house on Indiana.
Sportsbooks have some really bad positions on the Canes due to some aggressive futures betting (see @Peachycarnahan). The house is going to get it in the *** if Miami wins. Maybe there's some value in offsetting that by getting heavy, greedy action on IU plus the points.

It's funny, because at the beginning of the playoffs, Indiana was thought to be one of the most overrated teams by many fans and pundits. Nobody was giving them respect. I knew they would whip Bama, but I thought the winner of Oregon/Texas Tech would give them a challenge. Most media folks and people in general were picking Bama to whip them. I don't think anybody had Indiana coming out as the winner in their side of the bracket.

They beat a sorry *** Bama team and a good Oregon team with tons of flaws/holes and now they are invincible. Best team ever. Better than 2001 Miami and 2019 LSU. We are lucky to be on the same field as them. Woe is Miami. Can't wait until we get up 14-0 and just turn the game into a slug fest.
Indiana's grown *** man of a DB picked off Moore for the pick 6 and got into a 20 year old's mind. After that it was self inflicted wounds like fumbling the ball because you hit your RB while trying to throw.

I think our line brings a lot more pressure. Cig is a great coach and will have his guys in a good mind-space, but if we get out to an early lead and bring the pressure I can see us getting in their heads.

Indiana does not want a physical slug match.

I don't think any team has wanted a physical game against us. The problem is we make that unavoidable.
