We are finally here, as the 2024-2025 college football season comes to an end today in Atlanta, Georgia with the national championship game between Notre Dame and Ohio State.

In today's world of college football with the 24/7 never ending transfer portal it's hard to rank teams way too early but here we are. Another way way too early top 25 rankings is here, this latest one coming from On3 Sports. College Football analysts Andy Staples and Ari Wasserman released their top 25 for the 2025 season

Indiana is coming off a historic 11-2 season were they reached the CFB Playoff berth were they loss to Notre Dame 27-17.

Indiana losses key impact players in Kurtis Rourke, Justice Ellison, Ty Son Lawton, Zach Horton, CJ West, James Carpenter, Jailin Walker and Trey Wedig for the 2025 season.

But return: Elijah Sarratt, Omar Cooper Jr, Carter Smith, Aiden Fisher, Mikail Kamara, D'Angelo Ponds and Amare Ferrell. They also added huge impact transfers in Fernando Mendoza, Hosea Wheeler, Dominique Ratcliff, Tyler Morris and Kahlil Benson who played at IU previously before heading to Colorado.

Indiana's schedule is tougher in conference compared to the 2024 season, depth will be questioned again and their ability to score in big games. Those are the answers Curt Cignetti and company need to answer and prove before they are taken serious as a national contender now and forever.
