Oregon Ducks - 22
Indiana Hoosiers - 56
A beat down from the very beginning. MVP was Heisman Trophy QB Fernando Mendoza with his 5 TD passes, but arguments could be made Indiana's best player was Dante Moore, QB, Oregon. A pick-6 and two fumbles inside the 10 gave the Hoosiers an easy 21 points. Throw in a blocked punt that set up another TD and the self-inflicted wounds hurt the Ducks. And, even without any of those scores, Indiana still would have won. On to the National Championship against Miami.
