BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana put an exclamation point on the 2024 season with a dominant performance against Purdue, winning the Old Oaken Bucket rivalry game 66-0.

The Hoosiers finished the regular season with an 11-1 overall record and an 8-1 run in Big Ten play in coach Curt Cignetti’s first season. They tied for second place in the Big Ten standings, but Penn State had the tiebreaker and will face Oregon in the conference championship game.

That means Indiana has a few weeks off from games before it likely plays in the first round of the College Football Playoff on Dec. 20 or 21. ESPN gives the Hoosiers a 98.9% chance to make the 12-team playoff.

Indiana came in at No. 10 in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, and another set of rankings will be released Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET. Along with taking care of their own business, the Hoosiers got some help around the country, as losses from Miami, Clemson, Ohio State and Texas A&M could improve Indiana’s playoff seeding.
