The Bucket is home, and there is only one way to celebrate: a Waffle House dinner with plenty of Maple Missile Syrup. The Hoosiers got their first win over Purdue since 2019 in emphatic fashion on Saturday, hanging 66 points on the Boilermakers. With this win, Indiana was able to both reclaim The Old Oaken Bucket and add some much-needed style points to their CFP resume. This was in large part thanks to the superb connection between Kurtis Rourke and Elijah Sarratt.
