Indiana football quarterback Fernando Mendoza highlights
Mendoza had too many HeisMendoza moments to count.
He bullied Illinois with a near perfect state line — 267 yards (21 of 23) with five touchdowns and no interceptions. He dialed up a game-winner against Iowa in the face of a zero blitz. Bounced back from throwing a pick-six at Oregon to upend the country’s No. 2 ranked team. His throw to Omar Cooper Jr. will go down as one of college football’s all-time plays. Mendoza came through with a pair of clutch throws to help put away Ohio State in the Big Ten title game. And he wasn’t done there.
