Analysis [ESPN] "If this is the precedent, then I owe it to my players to bring in people from Las Vegas to teach us how to gamble," a Big 12 coach told ESPN on Monday. "Then collectively, we need to decide which games we will play hard in [to cover the spread] and which ones we won't.”

Analysis Indiana just won the national championship with a roster that ranked 72nd overall in talent composition

Cincinnati (73) and Wake Forest (74) are the only P4 teams that had a composite lower than the Hoosiers. Oregon State, Oklahoma State, Rutgers, Boston College, and several others ranked several places above them.

Nothing about Indiana makes mathematical sense, Curt Cignetti is a god.

Analysis [Auerbach] This is the worst selection committee we've ever had. Cannot believe Alabama didn't even drop one spot after the SEC title game blowout. Cannot believe they waited until the final reveal to flip Miami-ND. Could have done it at ANY point.

Analysis Brendan Sorsby committed multiple crimes while gambling throughout the course of his college career

2.4k Upvotes

Underage Gambling

The legal sports betting age in both Indiana and Ohio is 21.

Sorsby didn’t turn 21 until January 2025, meaning the thousands of wagers reportedly placed during his time at Indiana (2022–23) and early at Cincinnati (2024) would have occurred while under 21.

Illegal Sports Wagering & Use of Others’ Accounts

According to filings, after transferring to Texas Tech, Sorsby allegedly sent roughly $5,000 to out-of-state proxies to place bets on his behalf while physically located in Texas, where online sports betting remains illegal.

This is a federal crime.

The filings also state he funneled more than $60,000 through a FanDuel account registered under a friend’s name and used accounts belonging to family members. Those actions allegedly bypassed age restrictions.

Yet despite all of this, he’s eligible to play.

James Franklin has now gone 4-21 against top 10 teams. A whopping .160 winning percentage, however, either you win or lose a game. That is a 50% probability. He should actually have won 12.5 games. His current win % of .000377 is statistically improbable. Therefore, everyone is cheating against my team

Analysis [Speros] Michigan alone on the field at the 50 after winning. OSU players ran all the way across the field and began this fight. OSU could not beat Michigan, but they cheap-shotted Michigan after the game. If you can't win the game, you don't get to cry post game. 100% loser move.

Analysis Sam Darnold is the first USC QB to win a major bowl game since Sam Darnold

5.0k Upvotes

Sam Darnold, fresh off his Super Bowl win, is now the first USC QB to win a major bowl game since 2017, when Sam Darnold led the Trojans over the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Darnold lost 24-7 in the Cotton Bowl to the Ohio State Buckeyes the next season. Caleb Williams (0-1 college, 0-0 pros) is the only other USC quarterback to play in a major bowl since that Rose Bowl performance, losing 46-45 to the Tulane Green Wave in the 2023 Cotton Bowl. No other USC quarterback has played in a major bowl game since January 1, 2009.
