If you would’ve told me to start the season that Miami and Indiana would be playing in the national championship I would’ve called you fucking insane.

If you would’ve told me at the start of the playoffs that it would be a good game, I would’ve said the same thing.

How refreshing was that?

You tell me all that stuff 2 years ago, I'd try to get you committed.

Cuz people cant analyze a team not playing at their best vs playing at their best.

Miami barely got in though. We all know the other team that got in because their conference commissioner is a cry baby. The U proved they deserved to be there. I fear in coming years they won’t be so lucky.
