Get ready for the College Football Playoff Quarterfinal with the ultimate Indiana Beat Alabama Shirt. As Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza leads the Hoosiers against the Crimson Tide on New Year’s Day, you need to wear your allegiance loud and proud.
Indiana Beat Alabama 2026 Shirt – Hoosiers CFP Quarterfinal Gear
The shirt is the definitive piece of memorabilia for the “Hoosier Hysteria” taking over the 2025-2026 College Football Playoff. Designed specifically for the die-hard IU fan, this shirt targets the generation of supporters who have waited decades for a team this dominant.
The design features a classic script “Indiana” logo that evokes the timeless tradition of the Rose Bowl, juxtaposed with the aggressive, block-letter command “BEAT ALABAMA.” It is a visual representation of the Hoosiers’ identity: classic respect meets new-school dominance.

Why The Shirt Went Viral?
The Indiana Beat Alabama design exploded in popularity because it pays off a season-long internet joke that became a terrifying reality for the rest of the SEC. In October 2025, after a win against UCLA, a group of Indiana students went viral on TikTok and Reddit for chanting “We Want Bama.” At the time, it was seen as ironic confidence from a “basketball school.”
However, as Fernando Mendoza played his way to the Heisman and the Hoosiers secured a perfect 13-0 Big Ten Championship season, the meme became a prophecy. The virality of this shirt stems from that full-circle moment: the “joke” is now the Rose Bowl matchup. Wearing this shirt proves you were either there for the memes early on, or you are fully expecting the Hoosiers to dismantle the Tide on New Year’s Day.
