Miami should NOT be ashamed of this, either. They fought to the bitter end. Bright future ahead of them if Cristobal keeps things rolling.

They went up against a literal juggernaut. Indiana was really, really good this year. Not LSU and burrow good, but still pretty freaking good.

I’ve only seen one team better than the Burrow team. And that was Miami in 2001.

Talk about stacked with talent. Their roster sounds like a Pro Bowl team. And they were soooo friggin’ good.

I don’t remember that team but it seemed like every flashback highlight they showed during Miami’s run there was another player I remember watching in the NFL who I was like wait he went to Miami?
