Indiana Hoosiers Drop in CFP Rankings Despite Bye Week

Indiana Hoosiers Drop in CFP Rankings Despite Bye Week
World Sports · 23:52:46 - Saturday, 14 November 2026

Indiana Hoosiers football team fell in the latest College Football Playoff rankings despite not playing a game this past weekend. The team had a scheduled bye week but still saw its position decline in the CFP standings released Tuesday.

The drop highlights how other teams' results can impact idle programs in the playoff selection process. With several ranked teams winning over the weekend, Indiana's resume was comparatively weakened even without taking the field.

The Hoosiers will look to respond when they return to action next week, needing a strong performance to climb back into contention for a playoff berth.
