The Indiana Hoosiers just keep making history. Behind a dominant defensive performance and a three passing-touchdown day from Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza, the Hoosiers blasted Alabama 38-3 in the Rose Bowl to advance to the CFP semifinals.

The win sets up a rematch with the Oregon Ducks, who Indiana beat 30-20 back in October.

“It’s really hard to beat a team twice. Those guys are legit,” Mendoza said after learning of the matchup.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. How many of the players to win the Heisman Trophy since 2000 can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
