UPDATE: Indiana joins Top 25 for first time this season

By Jim O’Connell · Monday, Jan. 22,2007 3:01 p.m.

Kelvin Sampson's first Indiana team is where most of his Oklahoma squads spent quite a bit of time. The Hoosiers moved into The Associated Press' Top 25 for the first time this season Monday, riding a five-game winning streak to No. 23 in the poll. "It does and it doesn't," Sampson said when asked if being ranked really matters. "I might be wrong, but it seemed we were ranked every week for the past five or six years at Oklahoma, and when you are good you take it for granted. With this team it does matter. It gives our kids confidence."

At a Senate Judiciary hearing last Thursday, ultra-conservative U.S. Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales, made a disturbing statement that put into question 250 years of interpretation of habeas corpus, the right to be protected from unlawful imprisonment . In response to a series of questions by republican Sen. Arlen Specter on the Military Commissions Act of 2006, Gonzales said, "The Constitution doesn't say every individual in the United States or a citizen is hereby granted or assured the right of habeas corpus ... It simply says the right shall not be suspended."

Down 21-3 in the second quarter of the Indianapolis Colts-New England Patriots AFC Championship game, it looked to many throughout the state of Indiana that it would be another "next year" type of season for Peyton Manning and the gang.

But late-game heroics from Manning and a late interception by Indianapolis cornerback Marlon Jackson sealed a 38-34 Indianapolis victory and a trip to Miami for Super Bowl XLI.

A MIDWESTERN MATCHUP

By Cordell Eddings and Cordell M. Eddings · Monday, Jan. 22,2007 12:11 a.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Peyton Manning's head was down, but he had to sneak a peak. With less than 30 seconds left, the Colts holding on to a four-point lead and the ball in notorious comeback kid Tom Brady's hands, Manning looked up -- just in time to see Colts cornerback Marlon Jackson intercept Brady and send the Indianapolis Colts to the Super Bowl, sealing the biggest comeback in AFC Championship history. Manning and the Colts defeated the New England Patriots 38-34 after waiting years to get a shot at the Patriots at home in the RCA Dome, but it wasn't easy. "Our team went the hard way the whole year, but they hung tough," head coach Tony Dungy said.
