Every week brings a shifting in the standings and the potential bowl destinations. This article is not a reflection of where things currently stand. Rather, it is an attempt to project how things will finish. This is my best guess at the bowl game assignments for the Big Ten and of course, the Indiana Hoosiers (if there is to be one).

The Hoosiers fell to the Boilermakers in the Old Oaken Bucket game for the second year in a row and Purdue took home the bucket. Indiana was pretty unimpressive in the final regular season game and they didn’t seem to come out very ready to play. This is a game where the numbers lie because Indiana’s offense produced 487 yards compared to Purdue’s 440 but the Boilermakers came out with the win.

Opponent: Purdue Boilermakers
Location: Memorial Stadium Saturday November 24th, 2018 Bloomington, IN
Why They Played: The Hoosiers and Boilermakers play annually for the Old Oaken Bucket as protected rivals in the Big Ten.
What The Game Meant: Not only was this a revenge game for IU, it was a chance to change the tone of the season for both programs. IU will head home for the holidays while Purdue awaits their bowl destination.

With bowl eligibility on the line, Indiana fell to Purdue 28-21, and the Old Oaken Bucket will remain with the Boilermakers for another year. The Hoosiers finish the season at 5-7, and Purdue is going bowling. In a must win game, the IU defense was undisciplined and unprepared, which lead to costly mistakes.

The Indiana Hoosiers and Purdue Boilermakers both entered today needing a victory to extend their season. For the second straight season, the Purdue Boilermakers were the better team and they waltzed out of Memorial Stadium still holding the Old Oaken Bucket. Rondale Moore led all players with 141 yards and two receiving touchdowns as Indiana’s offense put forth a pathetic display for much of the afternoon in a 28-21 losing effort. Peyton Ramsey was ineffective much of the game and the Indiana attack was as bland and stale as it could possibly be. Indiana ended up outgaining Purdue 487-440 but numbers do not tell an accurate story of this game.

Week Thirteen Primer – Purdue Boilermakers
What: Indiana Hoosiers (5-6) vs. Purdue Boilermakers (5-6)
Where: Memorial Stadium
When: Saturday, November 24 at Noon
How to Watch: The game will be broadcast on ESPN2. You can also listen to the legendary Don Fischer on the radio on any IU Radio Network station.
What’s at Stake: The stakes could hardly be bigger as both teams are sitting at 5-6, needing one victory to reach bowl eligibility. In addition, the rivalry between the two schools has heated up recently as the pair have clashed over recruits and Purdue seized the Old Oaken Bucket back a season ago after a few years of Indiana dominance. Tom Allen is 0-1 against Jeff Brohm after last season’s disappointing contest in West Lafayette. Is this Jeff Brohm’s last game as Purdue’s head coach? Can the Hoosiers take the Bucket back and reach their first bowl game of the Tom Allen era?
