"There's about a two-in-three chance it will happen over the next couple of weeks; and if it doesn't, we'll have to settle for a team either winning its first crown in 63 years ( Ole Miss) or 24 years ( Miami). With three first-time semifinalists and a historical runner-up battling for the crown, college football is getting a burst of newness to finish the 2025 season. Here's a big "hell yeah" to that."
"The 20 (or so) best players of the CFP thus far (Semifinalists only) Amid some chaotic results, let's look back at the 20 or so players who were most responsible for giving us this pair of semifinal matchups. (Spoiler: Each team occupies five spots. We're all about equal treatment here.) 1. DE Rueben Bain Jr., Miami (2 games, 10 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, 4 sacks, 16 pressures, 2 run stops). Sixteen pressures! In two games! Bain has been unreal for the Hurricanes, especial"
It has been 29 years since a college football team won its first national title. There is about a two-in-three chance a first-time champion will emerge over the next couple of weeks; if not, Ole Miss could win its first crown in 63 years or Miami in 24 years. The semifinals open in Arizona with Miami facing Ole Miss, their first meeting since 1951, featuring Miami DE Rueben Bain Jr. chasing Ole Miss' Trinidad Chambliss while the Hurricanes counter the Rebels' speed with manpower. The next day in Atlanta, Indiana — the national title favorite with an experienced roster and driven coach — meets Oregon's young, blue-chip roster in a season rematch. A compiled list highlights the top CFP performers from each semifinalist.
