Indiana University's football team, under the leadership of 64-year-old head coach Curt Cignetti, secured a commanding 56–22 victory over No. 5 Oregon in the Peach Bowl. This win continues Indiana's remarkable season, positioning them as the nation's only unbeaten team and setting them up for a potential national championship. The Hoosiers have achieved success through disciplined play, leading the nation in turnover margin and ranking top five in penalties. Quarterback Fernando Mendoza has been instrumental, with outstanding performances in the College Football Playoff games.

Cignetti's focus on detail and discipline has fostered a team culture that thrives under pressure.
