@CollegeFBonX Now do undefeated seasons in both!

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@FFB_Fanatics Also, the comment on IG got taken down. Stop spreading things without knowing if they’re fact.

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@JusticeEllison1 @CoachJMill @r_h3mby @kaelonblack6 Two of my fave players to watch this year! So much determination and hard work when they run!

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@C_23_N @Kenny_Jordan5 We did it undefeated in both? Can we join?!

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@Kenny_Jordan5 But who did it with undefeated seasons in both?! #iufb #iumbb

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

These guys pick way better than the “experts”

[Seattle Seahawks @Seahawks]

Who you got? ⬇️

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@SenatorBanks Yessssss!!!

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

Only ones to do it undefeated in both!!!

[College Football Zone @CollegeFBonX]

Teams with a national championship in football and men’s basketball

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

What a joke. All year. Don’t lose a single game and they still doubt you. @IndianaFootball was the one disrespected by you guys (except @PatMcAfeeShow ) all year long.

Can’t wait to watch you keep doing it again next year!

[College GameDay @CollegeGameDay]

THE FINAL PICKS OF THE SEASON ARE IN!
▪️ @DesmondHoward stays rockin with The U 🙌
▪️ Coach Saban pulling out the Miami hat 👀
▪️ Marcus Freeman isn't giving Miami bulletin board material 😅
▪️ @PatMcAfeeShow calling the Hoosiers the official school of Indiana 🤣

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

That’s my school! Everyone likes to make fun of Indiana and its people but I am so proud to be a Hoosier!

[CFB Kings @CFBKings]

Indiana now owns the most recent undefeated season in football and basketball.

16-0 in football in 2025
32-0 in basketball in 1975-76

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

Yup. Only ones to do it

[John Fanta @John_Fanta]

The most recent teams to go undefeated in college football and men’s college basketball:

Curt Cignetti’s 2025 Indiana Hoosiers

Bob Knight’s 1975-76 Indiana Hoosiers

Party on, Bloomington.

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@JaHeisman @IndianaFootball @CoachEddie2 @CoachShanahan_ @CCignettiIU Yes sir!!

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@RGIII You always knew!!!

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

@warandtreaty So so good!

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

I relate to this one too much.

Chills.

@IndianaFootball @IUHoosiers

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

Facts.

[Tom VanHaaren @TomVH]

Anyone who wears a quarter zip with no undershirt should not be messed with.

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

I would love to not hear one more negative word about @IndianaFootball , their SOS, etc. Just give them credit. They play hard, don’t trash talk, get the job done. So proud to be a Hoosier🌹❤️🙌🏻 And @espn commentators (besides @PatMcAfeeShow ) you can start picking us to win now.

[Melissa Smith @abovethenet_vb]

Dad drove the team all the way to Pasadena from Bloomington! Thanks for sharing @HoosierSpeaker 🌹👏🏻👏🏻

[Speaker @HoosierSpeaker]

Dude drove the team down from Bloomington

[Hooparazzi @Cabbyfromgreene]

Shout out to the @IndianaFootball fans who won't be making the trip to Pasadena...those fans who were here for decades watching 2-3-4 win seasons who can't make the trip are the backbone of IU football and shouldn't be forgotten or priced out in the future.
