Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza, who led the Hoosiers to their first-ever No. 1 ranking and secured the top seed in the College Football playoff bracket, was awarded the Heisman Trophy on Saturday night. He achieved this honor by throwing for 2,980 yards and a national-leading 33 touchdown passes during the season. Mendoza’s performance was instrumental in Indiana’s successful campaign. This accolade marks a significant milestone in both his career and Indiana football history.
