2025 College Football Playoff Semi-Final - Oregon vs. Indiana: Live Chat
Who will be headed to the national title game?
Fernando Mendoza still had Cal on his mind after beating Indiana. He talked about how difficult a matchup it’d be to go against Tosh Lupoi and the Oregon defense for the second time.
Indiana got the best of Oregon in Autzen with a 30-20 victory, but beating an elite team twice in a year is always difficult, and the stakes will never be higher than in the college football playoff semifinal in Atlanta.
Either way, there will be a graduate of the University of California in the national title game. Take the small wins where we can!
#1 Indiana vs. #5 Oregon, Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl
Mercedes-Benz Stadium - Atlanta, GA
4:30 PM Pacific, 7:30 PM Eastern - ESPN




Borrowing this from the postgame thread at r/cfb:
"All time QBs with more TD passes than incomplete passes in a CFP game:
Fernando Mendoza (5 and 3) vs Oregon tonight (a top 5 pass defense this season)
Fernando Mendoza (3 and 2) vs Alabama in the Rose Bowl
Tua Tagovailoa (4 and 3) vs Oklahoma - 12/29/2018
That’s it, that’s the top 3 all time.
Casual 17/20, 177yds, 5 TD game by Mendoza tonight with a 241.8 QBR. He has 5 incompletions over 2 games, jfc.
Someone ask the folks who kept saying, “It’s hard to beat a good team twice” how hard it is to beat IU once."
Broadcast chyron at the end of the game said this was the 5th game this season where Mendoza had more TDs than incompletions. Nando was on fire, defense was absolutely dominant, IU as a team was locked TF in.
Well we gone get our coach in a about a hour and half 😂😂😂
