Have to clean up the turnovers in the OT. We lost the lead by not getting shots in the fourth quarter.
Would have preferred to see Notre Dame instead of Alabama. Surely they could put up more than 3
Rooting for UGA this evening but please don't give me another snooze fest like the last 7 hours have been
Managed to blow an 18 point second half lead
From 49-31 to 60-60.
Yeah, turnovers galore and lazy defense leading to a lot of fouls and and-1s for Miami
#0 for Miami must major in Theater/Drama
This 4th quarter has been UGLY basketball
I don't get this one.
When people worry that we will never be able to claw back up from being down, remember this was Indiana back in 2021:
Usually kids that into trains pick Purdue.
Cignetti has resting DGAF face.
51-39 HOKIES end of third
Mendoza is the first football robot I've ever seen shoehorn the word "conglomerate" into his on-field victory interview.
I'm not quite sure how to feel about that.
Agreed. SEC typically gets the boost from pre-season rankings and the incestuous echo chamber of "the SEC is so good so the fact that the team lost to SEC schools just means that the SEC is so good.
The ACC never ceases to amaze me in how it continues to find ways to sodomize itself.
I wonder if the non-CFP-participating ACC members saw this as a "winning the lottery" type of thing. "Look, if we agree to this, and we most assuredly go to the CFP next season, we'll get to keep ALL the money!!"
Also, a template on how to win after a bye in the CFP.
All joking aside, the SEC is just nowhere near the hype they've had all season. They always get the benefit of the doubt (especially by ESPN) but they are usually still pretty good if not as good as ESPN pretends.
This year, the hype has been especially egregious.
It's just not good TV. I don't care if they won their conference. I don't not pay good money to care about teams advancing in their sport... objective qualifications... blah blah blah.
We want deserve to consume a competitive matchup. Get these mouth breathing Hoosiers off my tv and let me watch real football schools play a tough, hard-fought battle.
Jesus, is Indiana that much of a juggernaut this season or is Bama not worth the 12 seed they rode in on?
The job that Cignetti has done at IU is amazing. IU should be held up as the golden standard of what NIL+Transfer Portal can do compared to the shitshow that was CU when Prime rolled into town.
Looks like it was part of the solution that made the FSU/Clemson lawsuit go away.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — The Atlantic Coast Conference has spent years working to find more money to reduce the gaps with the Big Ten and Southeastern conferences.
The league is hoping a new wrinkle to how it divvies up payments to its member schools can help and provide some stability about its long-term future.
This is the first sports season under a new model allowing ACC schools to keep more of the money generated by their own postseason success, a departure from decades of equal distributions among full league members. That "success initiative" could mean $20 million to $25 million more for a school in a big year, based primarily on football like everything else in college athletics.
It also could incentivize more investments in those revenue-driving programs, with the aim of generating their own bump to the bottom line alongside winning championships.
"We're seeing more and more of a movement toward if you generate it, you get it," North Carolina athletic director Bubba Cunningham said in an interview with The Associated Press.
The plan, approved in May 2023, comes amid change and tension for the ACC. The league expanded West to add California and Stanford from the Pac-12, along with SMU from the American Athletic Conference. It is locked in legal battles with top football schools Florida State and Clemson tied to the ACC's ability to charge hundreds of millions of dollars — through exit fees and by withholding media-rights payments — for any school that leaves the conference.
Q1 loss for Bama wonder how it will impact their preseason top 8 ranking next season.
I'm not sure who you are poking fun at, but I'm here for it.
Not seeing it anywhere else yet. I am wondering how they would be able to just decide after the fact to redistribute millions of dollars. Seems like a fast track to a lawsuit
This was not in place last week so if its true then its new and another example of incompetence in Charlotte
33-19 HOKIES at the half.
Man, I'm so glad we let 3 loss alabama into the CFP; it just means more getting dog-shit walked by Indiana
Can't wait for Ole Miss to smoke jawja too
