| 0:00.0 | Welcome in to the PFF College Football Show, Max Chadwick, alongside Dalton Wasserman here. We did a watch along last night. |
| 0:19.9 | If you guys didn't check it out already, |
| 0:21.4 | watching the national title game with you guys. And what a national title game we got with |
| 0:27.1 | Indiana taking down Miami, 27 to 21 Indiana's first ever national championship in football, Dalton. |
| 0:38.3 | Absolutely. I mean, you really, you hope to get to the end of the season and every single year, no matter who it is, the best team wins the championship. |
| 0:44.3 | In Indiana, proved throughout the year they're the best team. They went through a few moments where they had to grind through some close games, including this one. |
| 0:51.3 | And what a fantastic game this was. The effort in the second half, especially from the Miami Hurricanes coming so close to pulling off the upset. But at the end of the day, this Indiana team was a true three-phase unit. You saw it on offense in spurts against a really good Miami defense. You saw it on defense with the game-winning play, especially at the end from Jamari Sharp. And even on special teams, I thought one of the biggest plays of the game was the block punt by Mikhail Camara that |
| 1:14.4 | turned into a touchdown. And just every contributor from this Indiana team really made a big difference. |
| 1:20.0 | And it was a true team effort, despite having a Heisman trophy winning quarterback. And he had his |
| 1:24.4 | moment in this game as well. Kurt Signetti built a complete football |
| 1:27.8 | team, the most complete football team in the country, and that's why they're national champions. |
| 1:32.3 | So what we're going to do here alive on this show is break down that national title game, |
| 1:36.3 | more in depth of course all the PFF grades, all the stats you need to know from this national |
| 1:41.0 | title game. And also, not just that on the show, Dalton, we have a way too early top 25 for the |
| 1:48.7 | 26 college football season. |
| 1:51.6 | We're going to break down that entire top 25 for you guys here live on this show as well. |
