Battle for the Old Oaken Bucket: Indiana (7-4) vs Purdue (4-7) (12PM ET ESPN2)

[TrueOrange]

It’s currently 7-0 Hoosiers as they look for their first 8-win season since 1993.

Winner gets the Old Oaken Bucket (if I understand correctly, an “I” or a “P” gets added the result of each game between the two).

And on cue, Indiana is trying to choke this one away.

Tied at 31 with 2:48 to play. IU choking big time.

Indiana may choke their way into the Pinstripe Bowl

And now not only is IU blowing great field position and blew a wide open TD, they're leaving Purdue plenty of time on the clock to get in position to kick a game winning FG.

This game is a prime example of typical IU; can't ever close the deal in football.

ROFL....IU had Purdue pinned at the 1, 3rd and 10 and gives up a first down. ROFL.

 

[Boston Vol]

That’s what you call a lucky bounce

Lol, it's either IU can't get it done, or then something like that happens. 100% pure luck for Purdue.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

IU simply can't make a play when they need to. 4th and Goal and their defender falls down and Purdue easily scores.

IU wins despite themselves.
