Here at Hammer and Rails we appreciate fan comments (as long as they agree with us) and suggestions (as long as they’re good). We had someone suggest an article comparing #1 Purdue to the last time IU was ranked #1. This sounded like a fun write-up for rivalry week ahead of the big game. Purdue heads to Assembly Hall tomorrow for the first time as the #1 team in the country.
If you scroll back many, many years ago you can find the last #1 IU ranking came during the 2012/2013 season. This was also the first time IU had got to the top of the AP poll in 20 years.
