Created on December 7, 2025 | Total tries: 32 | Average Score: 14.3 out of 15 (95%) | Quiz FAQ

Two years ago, Curt Cignetti took over an Indiana Hoosier program that had more losses than any other team in college football history. Now, they're Big 10 champions and set to be the top seed in the College Football Playoff after beating Ohio State in the Big 10 Championship.

The last time Indiana won a share of a Big 10 title was 1967, and they hadn't won the conference outright since 1945.

Which brings us to today's quiz. How many of the teams to win the Big 10 football championship game can you name in 5 minutes?

Good luck!
