Indiana bowls over Purdue 54-36 to claim Old Oaken Bucket

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) Indiana quarterback Nate Sudfeld delivered a five-star performance in the most important game of his college career.

The senior threw for four touchdowns, ran for another, became Indiana's career passing leader and led the Hoosiers to a monumental 54-36 victory at Purdue that made Indiana bowl eligible for the first time in eight years.

It was an incredible journey. The Hoosiers (6-6, 2-6 Big Ten) opened the season with four straight wins then lost six straight before winning their last two - on the road.
