Three Things: Indiana 44, Purdue 41

Indiana capped off one of the best seasons in the program’s history with one of the most memorable Bucket games in the rivalry’s history, beating Purdue in double overtime, 44-41.

1. Best Bucket game ever

The Austin Starr Kick is always going to hold the sentimental vote but Saturday’s game might be the best game in the history of the Old Oaken Bucket. It was only the second overtime game in the history of the rivalry, which is hard to believe.

The game had a bit of everything. It had lots of scoring, some big defensive plays, highlight reel plays, circus catches and lots of drama all with a bucket on the line.
