By the way , I don’t want them to get it turned around 😁

I can attest to this as a 7th grader ,At Village Woods ,playing St. Henry’s for the first time. Our schools were 3 blocks from each other. After the game I did know what hit us. Until I learn they had been playing since 5th grade. They all went to Luers after 8th grade.

I can agree to that, but never take the bucket game lightly. Strange things have happened over the years.

Not with hires like the last one. That should have gotten the AD canned.

Sounds like you’re pretty serious? But this is big time football. You have to win here. The Vikings, my favorite nick name, are still in it. By the way, my junior high school was the Village Woods Vikings. Feeder in to NHHS. 7th 8 th and 9th grade. I was the star half back for the Vikings.

I may be able to attend this contest.

Nice! The BEAT DOWN will happen after all!

Has anyone looked at enrollment stats at The university? Have they been fluctuating one way or the other?

Not to hijack the thread, but keeping kids safe theme , I absolutely think driving privileges should start at 18 , all over the United States. 15 and 16 year old people are not ready for this responsibility. The NUMBER ONE killer of teenage people. Not even in the same breath of sports safety.

Yea, he’s 94 and still drives to the store. Quit golf this spring.so he’s slowing down.

Bob you have a very good memory. Or you saw it recently on film. I mean ,I was there and I remember the bands going at it. As a result ,every year after that there was no visiting team bands at the games. I know Pete and mr. Hoosier , or who ever was Indiana’s mascot at the time, got into it. But as a Freshman I had a few beers before the game (I hope my dad doesn’t see this)I got my older sister, as a good brother should, a ticket to the game , she was a junior at Purdue. Believe it or not the bucket game was always sold out at Rossade or memorial. But other than that my memory has faded. (Age-related) I haven’t missed many IU home games from that year forward.

Their just might be something archived. Remember, this is ‘71, 8mm was the big thing and filming was illegal at the games. So if on film I’m certain the university has the good stuff under wraps. Also, very seldom if ever,was this great rivalry game ever on television.

John Ponts last game as Indiana’s coach, then bring in the Lee Corso era

This doesn’t surprise me here , only one Purdue fan on this site. Can’t blame them though.

Said with a big exhaled sigh of relief!

What? You thinking Nowlin is blowing smoke?

Nothing so far, hmmmm..... And something so obvious. I’m positive that if the shoe was on the other foot , Indiana backers on here would be lined up to concede to a “P” on the chain. I guess I don’t get it.

So no game, but I think all the PU backers on here would agree that it would be a W for indiana. So can you guys 1 by 1 concede here on the GID that indiana gets the “I” on the bucket?

They can’t punish Indiana for their success, but they can’t penalize the “Nuts” for something out of their control. ( although Irishman brought up a good point with controlling the virus) so they have to logically save face here.

Calm down! Lol we all agree but will still come out of this with a lot of positive.

Sure this is one way to logically save face

Mudda is right, but like I said the money talks!

So with that said, obviously this has nothing to do with the talent that might be there in the near future. Greener pastures. Says something when the basketball coach and football coach both leave WC for the same school?

The Hoosiers, if they win out here, have a date with a January 2 bowl game! Big money and recruiting bait. This is way more important to them as a program than what happens with OSU. Let the fun begin!

But this is Hilarious! The two biggest powers in the Big Ten, one can’t win a game, and the other can’t play in the championship! Lol. The rude Ohio state fans and Big blue fans ain’t any better. Lol. What a hoot! You couldn’t write a better scenario for me as the two teams I despise the most. Lol Fun to see them woller in it, if only for a season. This will bring them down to what Purdue and Indiana have had to deal with for how long? Lol, This is real funny. Next year I will slap myself back into reality. Oh well funny while it lasted.
