Purdue Re-Captures the Bucket; Beats IU 31-24
Finallllllly. The bucket. Has come back. To West Lafayette.
After a four year long hiatus thanks to the ineptitude of that guy who was here before Jeff Brohm, Purdue finally has possession of the Old Oaken Bucket again. It can’t be overstated the massive turnaround that Brohm has completed in just one year. For those of you that need a reminder, remember that Darrell Hazell, in four seasons as the head coach, won a total of 9 games. Nine games in four years, with these same players. Jeff Brohm came in and has won six games in his first season and is taking Purdue to a bowl game for the first time since 2012.
