We've all seen some crazy things in the 2020s. Murder hornets, a novel new virus coupled with global lockdowns, and toilet paper shortages in 2020. A 100-year flood in the mountains of North Carolina followed by heroic deeds from Amish builders and race-car drivers in 2024. And plenty more, more than I care to list in this blog post. It seems like we're living in an inverted world in which the normally least likely things are now the most likely to actually happen.
And now we've seen perhaps the most unlikely thing of all: the Indiana Hoosiers winning a national championship, not in basketball as one might think, but in football, the sport in which they've been perennial doormats for as long as anyone can remember.
Congratulations, Hoosiers. Y'all earned it against a very tough Miami team that never quit, and you've made history. More than that; y'all were due after so many years of doldrums. It was a real joy watching you play the game at such a high level of proficiency.
Enjoy your moment. :)
