The Indiana Hoosiers will hold their second straight spring game under head coach Curt Cignetti, this one coming in April at the conclusion of spring practices. The Hoosiers will have a new look this season with a lot of starters moving on after their magical 2024 season.

However, there have been some changes to the spring game for Indiana this year. The Spring game was originally supposed to take place on Saturday, April 19, at Noon at Memorial Stadium. Now, the game has been changed to take place on Thursday, April 17, at 8:00 p.m. EST at Memorial Stadium.

This will be Hoosier nation's first look at this new squad Cignetti has carefully put together for his big return to the field in 2025. The Hoosiers have a lot to live up to in 2025 after what they did in 2024. A trip to the College Football Playoff and winning the most games ever in a season is going to be tough to follow up, but for this team to be taken seriously, they are going to need something special next season.

Cignetti has brought in a slew of players from the transfer portal, a lot on the offensive side of the ball, like quarterbacks Fernando Mendoza and Grant Wilson. The Hoosiers also got wide receiver Makai Jackson from Appalachian State and Tyler Morris from Michigan to help aid Mendoza, who is looking to be the projected starter.

Of course, in spring practices, though, anything can happen. It looks like the battle will be between Wilson and Mendoza for the starting quarterback position.

Admission to the spring game is free for all fans, so Hoosier fans can get a good look at what their team is going to show in the 2025 season.
