Explained simply
Indiana University’s Hoosiers are a college American football team. Before their championship season, the programme had a long record of losing, making its turnaround a striking change in fortunes.
In the 2025–26 season, Indiana won all 16 of its games and the national championship. The team’s success involved players, coaches and people working behind the scenes, whose contributions form part of the story.
