Hell of a run by Mendoza. 

Mark Davis and Tom Brady are fully aroused after that play. That's 1st overall pick worthy

This Toney kid is a stud. Is he a draft guy?

[gunnarthor]

Nvrmnd, I guess he's a freshman.

I assume he's related to Kadarius Toney in some way? Not exactly a common last name

After further review, Malachi Toney and Kadarius Toney aren't related according to Wikipedia... Unless they're cousins or something. That's pretty crazy because Kadarius played at Florida before he was drafted by the Giants in the 1st round back in 2020... Then he caught a case of the drops with Pat Mahomes.

This Indiana WR Becker is making a name for himself tonight hot damn

Pretty sure these are things you don't want to think too hard about south of the Mason/Dixon line.

Carson Beck couldn't have worse body language throughout the game.

For sure. Not a fan. 

Funny though, if he leads them down for a game winning drive, I could see him going in the second round. If he doesn't I could see him going in the sixth.

It feels like the days of the 2nd-3rd round QBs are over. Either you're a good enough prospect to be a 1st round pick, or you're a day 3 pick. Otherwise they're staying in college making millions which isn't a bad thing for them. 

[Vanimal46]

That was an awful pass from Beck

[gunnarthor]

Congrats indy

Probably. At least for underclassmen. True seniors like Jalen Hurts could still slip though I'd assume.

My question is how many more Cignetti's are hanging around in the lower levels of college football waiting for their golden opportunity?

[Vanimal46]

2 years ago the Hoosiers were 3-9 and in my lifetime never been good at football. In the last 2 years they are 27-2 with a Heisman trophy winner, Big 10 championship, and national championship trophy. They're living a real life rebuild like my college days playing NCAA Football 2009 with my buddies on Xbox.

My favorite thing was Cignetti being interviewed after the game and, in response to a question about that 4th down touchdown, he didn't give typical coach-speak about trusting his stud player or whatever, he gave us X's and O's.  This guy is an accountant in deep cover posing as a football coach.

I'm surprised he was able to override his internal programming and crack a smile after the win

NIL + Billionaire = national championship.

Now that Indiana has won the Super Bowl I hope the Vikings can get moving with their off-season plans.
