2015 Big Ten/ACC challenge Recap

The Big Ten wins 8-6 to keep the Commissioner's trophy for the seventh straight season.

Once again, the Big Ten/ACC Challenge was a rousing success for more than the reason that the Big Ten won. I think it is no coincidence that in every year of these seven straight Purdue wins (over seven different opponents, no less) the Big Ten has either won or tied the event.

You're welcome, Big Ten.

This year's event was another excellent one. Four of the 14 games went to overtime. The road teams dominated on the first two days, winning six of the first eight games and eventually 9 of 14.
