About the 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 undefeated 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. The perfect 16-0 season!

This stunning coffee-table book includes full coverage of the Rose Bowl win over Alabama, dominant win over Oregon and the thrilling national championship win vs Miami. “PERFECT!” is 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.
