The Indiana Hoosiers are quietly positioning themselves for a major leap in the 2025 College Football Playoff. According to On3's Andy Staples, he projects the Hoosiers as the No. 2 seed in the Playoff field should results fall correctly.
Curt Cignetti's squad is poised to face rival Purdue next, and a win would not only build momentum but would lock a berth in the Big Ten title game. Indiana’s upward movement this season has surprised many, and with other Big Ten teams scrambling, the Hoosiers may benefit from being the team to beat.
The key going forward is maintaining focus, avoiding the trap games in the Playoff. They'll need to capitalize on the path that lies ahead. If they navigate that successfully, Indiana could find itself playing on college football’s biggest stage for a second straight time. They might also have a Heisman Trophy winner in Fernando Mendoza in the process.
