Right now, Indiana is the best football team in their home state, which Notre Dame fans thought they would never see happen. The Hoosiers, who were demolished by the Irish in the College Football Playoff in 2024, made a lot of adjustments and are now just one win away from hoisting the National Championship trophy.
Not only has Indiana done better than Notre Dame on the football field, but they are also killing it off the football field. Head coach Curt Cignetti has landed quite a few big names from the Transfer Portal, including one the Irish were hoping to snatch up, wide receiver Nick Marsh.
