Indiana (10-0) is rated No. 5, which would set up a first-round playoff game against No. 10 Alabama (7-2) at home in Bloomington (IN). Despite the Hoosiers being No. 5 overall they are the the No. 7 seed.
The Big Ten has four teams in the top five with the Oregon Ducks, Ohio State Buckeyes, Indiana Hoosiers, and Penn State Nittany Lions.

The Hoosiers, who defeated Michigan 20-15 Saturday for their school record 10th win of the season are still getting dissed by the CFP committee by some, others think they are rightly ranked. Check out the tweets on X below for all the evidence.
JUST IN: Indiana moves up to No. 5 overall -- and the 7-seed -- in the new College Football Playoff rankings.

As it stands now -- it would be a home game vs Alabama. #iufb

Indiana football is on a bye week currently but will travel to Columbus on Nov. 23 to face No. 2 Ohio State in the biggest game in program history. On November 30th, IU will face in-state rival Purdue at home on senior day.
Did the committee get it right with Indiana's ranking?
