Let the image enrage you. That’s the Indiana football team. That’s the Old Oaken Bucket.
It’s been three long, pandemic filled years since Purdue has laid claim to the Old Oaken Bucket. For those not familiar, why are you here? But also, the Old Oaken Bucket is the prize for the winner of rivalry game between the Purdue Boilermakers and the Indiana Hoosiers.
Last year’s game was cancelled due to the myriad of covid related issues. So IU has been able to enjoy the Old Oaken Bucket without worry for two years. Coming into the season, they certainly had envisioned carrying it with them to a bowl game and through the off season again.
