Coach Curt Cignetti’s championship-winning Indiana program is facing a scheduling paradox: with 27 wins and a Big Ten title in just two seasons, the Hoosiers’ non-conference slate looks shockingly weak—almost SEC-style light—with no Power Four opponents outside the conference until 2030. He inherited the 2024 schedule but shaped most of the next five years, canceling a Virginia series for a $500K buyout to replace it with FCS teams like Kennesaw State. While his success is undeniable, the lack of early-season marquee matchups raises questions about long-term development and whether Indiana’s rise is being built on a foundation that’s too soft to truly test its mettle.
