About the book

Commemorate Indiana’s national championship with this coffee-table book

CHAMPS! “It’s pretty simple,” Curt Cignetti said soon after taking over the Hoosiers. “I win. Google me.” Cignetti promised to bring a winner to Bloomington. Promise kept. Now you can relive every moment of Indiana’s dominant season with “PERFECT! How Indiana completed the greatest college football story ever told.” This stunning 208-page hardcover collector’s book from the award-winning journalists at the IndyStar and Bloomington Herald-Times captures the inside story of how the Hoosiers went 12-0 in the regular season, beat Ohio State for the first time since 1988 to capture their first Big Ten title since 1967, claimed their first Rose Bowl and went to the national championship.

It’s all there: The road victory at Oregon that announced Indiana as a national contender. The dominant victory over Purdue in the 100th game with the Old Oaken Bucket at stake. The unforgettable night at Indianapolis when the Hoosiers were crowned outright Big Ten champions for the first time since 1945. And the next afternoon when Indiana rose to the top of the polls for the first time ever.

Plus: The coffee-table book will include full coverage of the Rose Bowl win over Alabama, dominant win over Oregon and the national championship vs Miami. “PERFECT!” also will be packed with exclusive photography, behind-the-scenes access and game-by-game coverage of Heisman Fernando Mendoza, Elijah Sarratt, Roman Hemby and the team that made history and earned Cignetti his second straight conference coach of the year award.

Whether you’ve been a Hoosiers fan for decades or just witnessed the story in college football history, this book belongs on your coffee table. Order your copy today and own a piece of perfection.
