See Mark Cuban’s reaction to Indiana football’s CFP semifinal win
Sounds like the billionaire Shark Tank star is invested in the Hoosiers’ run to the CFP national title game. Here’s what he said after the Peach Bowl.
Just one game remains in the 2025 college football season: the College Football Playoff National Championship.
No. 10 Miami, who moved into the 12-team College Football Playoff when the bracket was revealed, has upset its way to the national championship after taking down, in order, No. 7 Texas A&M, No. 2 Ohio State and No. 6 Ole Miss behind its suffocating defense and tenacious pass rush.
The Hurricanes take on No. 1 Indiana, who won the Peach Bowl 56-22 vs. No. 5 Oregon on Jan. 9. The Hoosiers are looking to achieve perhaps the greatest turnaround in college football history under second-year coach Curt Cignetti. The Hoosiers went 3-9 in 2023 and, two seasons later, look to complete a perfect season with a win vs. Miami.
Here’s what to know about the 2026 national championship game.
