Unveiling the 19 Secret Stats Behind Indiana’s Stunning National Championship Surge
85.6%
The well-thrown rate of Fernando Mendoza. That was fourth in the country, but what I find so interesting about it is how Mendoza managed that rhythmic passing performance while still making time to be a factor with his legs. His 6.9-yard average on scrambles was roughly twice what most quarterbacks in the top 10 in well-thrown rate posted. Mendoza was an adept improviser who never lost touch with the fundamental job of quarterbacking: accuracy.
27.8%
The team-leading pressure rate of JMU transfer Mikail Kamara, who was the defensive star of the title game. Kamara went from 10.0 sacks for the Hoosiers in 2024 to 7.0 this year, as he dealt with both injuries and Indiana’s decision to move him to the interior of the line sometimes. But Kamara remained a pressure-generating force, and he showed up big-time in the championship game, repeatedly slipping Miami’s All-American right tackle Francis Mauigoa to generate run stuffs. Kamara’s biggest play, however, was a casual blocked punt that immediately became an IU touchdown.
