BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Following IU Football’s historic 16-0 College Football Playoff National Championship season, Indiana University Athletics is proud to announce it is going on the road and bringing the football program’s championship trophies to Hoosier fans across the state beginning next week.

“From Indianapolis to Pasadena to Atlanta to Miami, Hoosier fans fueled our championship run by turning out in enormous numbers at each of our postseason games,” said IU Vice President and Director of Athletics Scott Dolson. “They transformed neutral site games into virtual home games, and had a big impact on making these championships possible. We’re excited to give Hoosier fans from every corner of the state a chance to see the trophies in person this spring.”

Starting March 24, the tour will crisscross the state of Indiana, making stops at IU campuses and regional hubs from the shores of Lake Michigan to the Ohio River. The initiative is free to attend, and aims to share the program’s success with the entire Hoosier community, recognizing that this victory belongs to the fans across the state.

The tour is designed to be an interactive experience as well. At every stop, fans will have the opportunity to get up close with some of the coveted trophies in college football, including the CFP National Championship, the Big Ten Championship, the Rose Bowl, and the Peach Bowl trophies.

IU Athletics encourages fans of all ages to attend, where they can take photos and selfies with the trophies. There will also be great giveaways at each of the Trophy tour stops.
