The moment I knew the fix was in for Miami

The ticky-tack RTP on Beck.

The spread for the game was Indiana by 7.5 or 8.5 depending on the sportsbook. With Miami down 6 and out of timeouts, they were basically guaranteed a cover at worst unless Indiana somehow got a defensive TD. A ticky-tack RTP being thrown at such a crucial moment where the whistle normally gets swallowed after the refs let the teams play all night long (including several shots on Mendoza) shows me that the powers-that-be wanted Miami to win outright.

All in all, props to Indiana for winning despite everything going against them.

Speaking of "fixed". Did you see the Buffalo Bills coach saying the NFL is rigged? So true.

It doesn't look good when the officials are walking the tunnel with miami and shaking the coaches hand before the game and NO officials in the Indiana tunnel and then they go out and refuse to call clear and obvious penalties against miami.

Oh ffs.

Every time someone loses a bet or their team doesn’t win, “the fix is in.”

Anyone ever notice how every game in the last 4 years, no matter what the outcome, the fix was in?

This game felt like a Miami cover the entire 2nd half. Always a red flag when 70% of the public is on the fave.

It was even crazier how the refs got the Indiana guard to jump offsides on 2nd & 1 when a 1st down would have almost secured the game and not given Miami another possession.

Is this the new excuse for why Indiana didn't look like the greatest team in NCAA history against a two-loss team that could not even win their conference?

The thing is, at the point of the Beck RTP, the game was basically guaranteed to end in a Miami cover/win unless Indiana got a defensive TD. The flag showed that the powers-that-be weren't content with a Miami cover; they wanted Miami to outright win.

If you're ever in an airport and have the time, go sit at the New Orleans departure gate. You will never not be entertained. If the flight gets canceled, it's even more entertaining because it was done on purpose.

On a cool note, I did get to meet Jordan Jefferson at the Denver Airport. Very nice guy and was very gracious to talk about 1-9-12.
