The final 2024 College Football Playoff rankings were released by the selection committee on Sunday afternoon.
Indiana (11-1, 8-1 in Big Ten play) was ranked the eighth team in the rankings. Because the top four conference champions all receive first-round byes, the Hoosiers were slotted into the first-ever 12-team College Football Playoff bracket as the No. 10 seed.
As the No. 10 seed, Indiana will travel up north to South Bend to take on the 7-seeded Notre Dame Fighting Irish (11-1) in the opening round of the College Football Playoff.
The first-round matchup with Notre Dame will take place on either Dec. 20 or Dec. 21.
Should the Hoosiers defeat the Fighting Irish, Indiana's next opponent would be the 2-seeded Georgia Bulldogs in the quarterfinals. That game would likely be played at the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans on Jan. 1.
