I'm pulling for Miami so people can quite trying to compare this Indiana team to 2019 LSU.
I'm pulling for the 1st NFL team that hires Cignetti so we can see Indiana flip back to relative mediocrity.
we’ll see what he does with a teams that isn’t the same average age as an NFL playoff team that’s been in his system for 5 consecutive years.
It really was a great game. In all seriousness, I am happy for the Indiana fans.
It was kind of surreal that in Miami's home stadium, there were more Hoosier fans.
I feel bad for Mendoza's mom. MS is tough. Watching the family was pretty touching.
Miami has never done very well in the fan support category.
throw in an opponent that has a very large, considerably wealthy alumni base that has literally never seen their team play for a title before and it's not shocking at all.
The two-time AP Coach of the Year signed a lucrative contract extension in October and unlocked a slew of bonuses to reach. Cignetti earned $2 million for winning the national title, meaning he's taken home over $6 million this year in bonuses. Here's a quick breakdown of how:
Cignetti's bonuses
- Fifth Big Ten win: $100,000
- Sixth Big Ten win: $150,000
- Big Ten championship win: $1,000,000
- CFP first round appearance: $500,000
- CFP quarterfinal appearance: $600,000
- CFP semifinal appearance: $700,000
- CFP national championship appearance: $1,000,000
- CFP national championship win: $2,000,000
