Coming into the first round of the College Football Playoff, the Indiana offense was averaging 426.4 yards per game and a whopping 41.3 points per game. On a cold night in South Bend, the Hoosiers looked to keep this success going. Unfortunately for IU, the offense was uncharacteristically out of rhythm. In the first half, the Hoosiers had four drives reach Notre Dame territory, only to come away with three points, as three punts and an interception stalled many of their promising drives.

Curt Cignetti’s first season in charge of the Indiana University football program resulted in the most wins in school history, a top ten ranking and a berth in the College Football Playoff. The Hoosiers drew a trip to South Bend to play the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. On Friday night, the best season in Indiana football history ended in disappointment as Notre Dame overwhelmed the Hoosiers and rolled to a 27-17 victory to advance to the Sugar Bowl against the Georgia Bulldogs.

In case the ramifications of that are not 100% clear, this game is part of the tournament that will decide who is the national champion. The winner of this contest gets to claim the first victory ever in the 12-team playoff and advances to the Sugar Bowl for a crack at Georgia. The Bulldogs will likely be without starting quarterback Carson Beck and that could open the door for a shot to reach the College Football Playoff Semifinals. Obviously, there are additional in-state ramifications but it gets no bigger than an actual playoff game and that is the opportunity in front of both teams on Friday night.

All eyes will be on South Bend this Friday where the #10 Indiana Hoosiers will take on #7 Notre Dame. This is the first CFP matchup ever between two schools in the same state, and the hype surrounding “The Battle For Indiana” has been building to a fever pitch. For the Hoosiers watching the media coverage, déjà vu of their Week 13 loss against Ohio State has likely begun to set in. True to their motto, this Indiana team is not daunted by the hype but rather eager to solidify their place as an emerging power with a victory.

It is all a bit surreal, when you take a step back and think about it.
Curt Cignetti and his Indiana Hoosiers program are headed to the College Football Playoff, one of just 12 teams left in the sport with a chance at winning the national title. One could say it was always possible; it just took the right person to awake the sleeping giant. But in actuality, it has felt for a long time now that the giant may be far past just sleeping. Perhaps, it was hibernating. Maybe even on life support.
