For the first time since 1993 the Indiana Hoosier football team has won eight games and ended the season with a winning record in conference play. The Hoosiers took down in-state rival Purdue in an overtime classic 44-41. Its the first time the Old Oaken Bucket will be back in Bloomington since 2016, and the first time in Tom Allen’s tenure as head coach.
The Hoosiers seemed to be in command of the game, leading 28-10 late into the third quarter, but a combination of sloppy offensive execution, including 3 missed field goals from Logan Justus, poor tackling and untimely penalties allowed Purdue to climb all the way back to tie the game and send it to overtime.
