College Football Playoff national championship: Josh Pate makes prediction on Indiana vs. Miami

The upcoming College Football Playoff national championship will feature the Indiana Hoosiers and the Miami Hurricanes at Hard Rock Stadium. Josh Pate, a college football analyst, has predicted a Miami victory, citing the potential for Miami to play its best game under the guidance of head coach Mario Cristobal. Pate believes Miami's performance at the line of scrimmage and the play of quarterback Carson Beck will be crucial in overcoming Indiana. He also referenced a close game Indiana played against Penn State, suggesting similar strategies could be beneficial for Miami. Offensive balance, particularly in the rushing attack led by offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson, is emphasized as a key to Miami's success. A win for Miami would mark their first national title since 2001, while Indiana looks to maintain its perfect season.
