Indiana saved its undefeated 2025 season on Saturday in Happy Valley with an incredible last-minute touchdown from Hoosiers quarterback Fernando Mendoza to wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr.

Indiana icing Penn State in the clutch should keep the Hoosiers ranked very high in the College Football Playoff bracket.

Calling the dramatic touchdown just about destroyed Fox Sports broadcaster Gus Johnson's vocal cords in the booth. Johnson loves being enthusiastic during big plays, but even he couldn't quite believe how Indiana pulled off such a colossal touchdown right when the team needed it most.

Poor Johnson is going to have to rest his vocals before next weekend, as we're sure he's going to be hoarse after such an electric call that just about fried his larynx.
