The Boilermakers have the opportunity to do something hilarious (they most likely won’t, mind you).
While a spot in the Big 10 Championship is no longer on the table after Penn State’s win over Maryland, a win by Indiana would almost certainly grant them a spot in the CFP first round.
Purdue won last year’s matchup 35-31 victory in a very back and forth game that was decided by a 10 yard TD run by an injured QB with 2 minutes left in the game, in a game that Indiana led for all but the last 2 minutes. The Boilermakers go into this on a 4 game winning streak in the rivalry series, though it’s hard to see that continuing as a 1-10 team.
The winner gets to take home the Old Oaken Bucket and add another letter.
