WEST LAFAYETTE — Indiana football completed its journey from the basement of the Big Ten to the penthouse on Friday night with a 56-3 win over Purdue in the 100th Old Oaken Bucket Game.

The No. 2 Hoosiers (12-0, 9-0 Big Ten) clinched a spot in the Big Ten title game and finished the regular season with a perfect record for the first time. This is also the first time the Old Oaken Bucket is staying in Bloomington in consecutive years since IU won four straight in the rivalry from 2013-2016.

Indiana has now outscored the Boilermakers 114-3 over the last two seasons, and the starters didn't even play into the fourth quarter at Ross-Ade Stadium on Nov. 28.
