## Resource

This is the Season 3 finale of The Iowa Nice Guy — and the end of one of the strangest, loudest, most revealing seasons college football has ever produced. This episode explores: • The quiet collapse of SEC dominance• How parity finally broke the sport’s old hierarchy• Why the national championship between the Indiana Hoosiers and the Miami Hurricanes tells us everything about where college football is headed• Miami’s long-buried swagger and why it still rubs people the wrong way• Indiana’s rise from polite indifference to the most compelling story in sports• Curt Cignetti’s blunt, joyless, relentless approach — and why it works Indiana isn’t nostalgia.Indiana is possibility. And that idea should make every fan in America uncomfortable — and hopeful — at the same time. 🍺 Presented by Modelo
