What is at stake?

Sure, Indiana can reclaim the Old Oaken Bucket for the first time since 2019 and win its trophy games for the first time since 2016. But this time the stakes are much higher. A win would likely clinch them a spot in the expanded 12-team College Football Playoff and send them to the Big Ten title game — if No. 2 Ohio State loses to Michigan. Purdue, meanwhile, is playing for the Cup and pride, trying to end a 10-game losing streak in what could be coach Ryan Walters’ final game against the Boilermakers.

Key Match

Purdue’s ground game vs. Indiana’s run defense. The Boilermakers have struggled to find balance all season and could struggle with Indiana’s physical defense – especially given this week’s stakes and the motivation from last week’s loss. Purdue had 19 carries for minus-4 yards at Michigan State. If the Boilermakers don’t do better on Saturday, it’s going to be another long night.

Players to watch

Purdue: QB Hudson Card could also play his last game in West Lafayette. He got off to a strong start this season but then struggled before a concussion cost him a few games. He bounced back last week with a career-high 342 yards and a TD, his best game against an FBS opponent in 2024. He’ll need to repeat that or improve on that this week to pull off an upset.

Indiana: DE Mikail Kamara and LB Aiden Fisher have been problematic in almost every offense this season. And while Ohio State’s defense played relatively well, we can expect both to make it clear that last week’s game was an aberration – and not the norm – for the Hoosiers.

Facts & Figures

Another loss would give Purdue a school-record 11 straight losing seasons, tying the 2013 team’s 2013 school record for total losses. … The Hoosiers have won just one bucket game since 2017. … The Boilermakers have had just three winless seasons in conference play since the end of World War II (1946, 1993 and 2013). They have never lost nine league games in a season. … The Hoosiers are trying to recover from their worst offensive game of the entire season (153 yards, 15 points). …. Devin Mockobee rushed for 14 yards and needed 55 in Purdue’s loss to Michigan State to become the eighth Boilermaker to reach 2,500 yards.
