Anybody following its picks on college football betting sites could have seen strong returns. Indiana has had a sense of inevitability since Curt Cignetti took over in 2024. The Hoosiers are no longer college football laughingstocks and instead are among the best teams in the nation once again after winning it all last year.
The team has looked far more vulnerable this year, though, due largely to the offense. Quarterback Josh Hoover, who Cignetti said this week has been playing injured, is not playing his best football of late. He's completed no better than 54.5% of his passes over Indiana's last three games.
The Hoosiers have scored, 20, 15 and 13 points over that stretch. Thankfully for Indiana fans, the Hoosiers are No. 2 in America in scoring defense at 12.0 points per game allowed. Minnesota is 5-2 on the year with notable wins over Washington, Michigan, and Iowa under its belt.
