They returned from a first-round bye with a 38-3 Rose Bowl blowout win over the No. 9 Alabama Crimson Tide before rolling past the No. 5 Oregon Ducks 56-22 in the Peach Bowl.

Indiana now meets a Miami team that will get to play for the national title at its home stadium. Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, is the site of this year’s championship game. Mario Cristobal’s Hurricanes received a controversial first-ever CFP bid, but they’ve certainly shown they belong among college football’s elites. Miami’s stout defense powered its first two playoff wins, as the Hurricanes defeated the No. 7 Texas A&M Aggies 10-3 before bouncing the defending champion No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes 24-14 in the Cotton Bowl.  And then it was the Hurricanes’ offense that came up clutch in a 31-27 Fiesta Bowl victory, as Miami and the No. 6 Ole Miss Rebels combined for 25 points in a roller-coaster fourth quarter that saw four lead changes. Carson Beck engineered a 15-play, 75-yard go-ahead drive, which was capped by the quarterback scrambling for a touchdown inside the final 20 seconds.
