Iowa Nice Guy, Week 20 - 2026 | CFP Semis, Indiana’s Moment & The Transfer Portal Era

The College Football Playoff semifinals are here — and the sport has officially entered its weirdest era yet.

In this episode of The Iowa Nice Guy, we cover:

• Ole Miss vs Miami and the “someone has to win” semifinal
• Oregon vs Indiana and the pressure on Dan Lanning and Curt Cignetti
• Why Indiana’s run is already one of the most remarkable stories in modern college football
• The transfer portal: who it helps, who it hurts, and why fans are losing their grip on rosters
• How the SEC lost its stranglehold on the sport
• Why the NFL may be the next unintended victim

Pandora’s Box is open.
Hope is still inside.
And college football isn’t going back.
