‘Maple Missile’ and ‘Waffle House’ Set Records in IU’s 66-0 Rout Over Purdue

Written By: Ben Gillard (@benjgillard)

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.

Hoosier Huddle's Game Day Primer: No. 10 Indiana Hoosiers vs. Purdue Boilermakers

First and foremost, the Old Oaken Bucket is on the line and beating Purdue is always a top priority for the Indiana Hoosiers. Curt Cignetti made it clear early in his tenure that seizing control of the state was important and this is his first opportunity as the head coach at IU to beat the Boilermakers. Beyond the rivalry, the Hoosiers enter the contest at 10-1 and ranked tenth (11 seed) in the College Football Playoff rankings. IU needs to beat Purdue in dominant fashion and then potentially get a bit of help elsewhere. A win over Purdue gives Indiana a real chance to make the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff, a truly remarkable achievement.

Matchup to Watch: Week Twelve – Protecting Kurtis Rourke...Again

Written by: TJ Inman 

The Indiana Hoosiers fell to the Ohio State Buckeyes in Columbus, falling to 10-1 and #10 in the polls. IU’s playoff fate is unclear but losses by Ole Miss, Alabama and Texas A&M appear to have the Hoosiers in a great spot to make the 12-team field. Of course, they must comfortably take care of rival Purdue before worrying about any of that. Indiana has not won the Old Oaken Bucket since 2019 and the Boilermakers enter this contest winless in the Big Ten.
