It is March and while we are taking the necessary precautions to keep everyone as healthy as possible, we recognize that most everyone is missing March Madness and filling out a bracket. As we do not cover basketball, we decided to turn our attention to a tournament to determine the greatest figure in Indiana football history. The Hoosier Huddle team has come up with a 64-’team’ bracket that will let you, the fans, decide who is the greatest Hoosier football figure of all-time.

We encourage people to weigh in on social media as well as in our comments section. We KNOW that we probably mis-seeded people, but having a discussion about it beats the heck out of just yelling at folks trying to give you your football fix.

How this will work is that we will release the matchups, along with a ‘tale-of-the-tape’, and have a fan vote on Twitter. Feel free to print and fill out your brackets and send us predictions or just vote. We will start releasing matchups on Twitter on Saturday throughout the day. The first round will conclude on Sunday evening.

Fans who would like to fill out their bracket are encouraged to do so. The winner of the bracket contest will get a gift card to a local restaurant of their choosing. Brackets must be submitted by Noon ET on Saturday March 21st. First-round matchups will be worth one-point, with an upset counting as a bonus point. Second-round matchups will be worth two and so on. Brackets can be submitted to TheHoosierHuddle@Gmail.com or to @Hoosier_Huddle on Twitter.

In an effort to help local businesses during this time we are offering a gift card to the winning bracket. This is a free contest, but if you would like to donate to the gift card fund please use Venmo (@Samuel-Jacobs-7) or Paypal (sammyjacobs108@gmail.com). Sammy Jacobs will be putting in $25.

This is intended, first and foremost, to be fun and shed some light on the past of Indiana football. Below is the bracket for your enjoyment click for a larger version:
