104th meeting and the 77th battle for the Old Oaken Bucket, making it one
of the country's most storied football rivalries. IU had its hopes for a
bowl game dashed this past week at Penn State as the Hoosiers fell to the
Nittany Lions, 28-14, despite 366 total yards from Heisman Trophy

wins against Purdue and Kentucky.
