Episode 68: Keeping Purdue Losing

In this episode, Trent and Tim preview the 2025 Old Oaken Bucket game, where the 11-0 Hoosiers aim to secure their spot in the Big Ten Championship game against a struggling Purdue squad. Trent humorously compares playing Purdue to an awkward Thanksgiving encounter with an unsuccessful high school ex, while the hosts label Purdue a "loser program" under head coach Barry Odom, whom they view as a retread hire following the firing of Ryan Walters. With Indiana favored heavily—Tim predicting a 42-6 win with Kaelon Black as player of the game and Trent forecasting a 56-10 blowout featuring backups like Khobie Martin—the duo suggests Purdue has nothing to lose and might resort to wild tactics like 12-man blitzes. Despite the rivalry nature, they see the game as a foregone conclusion that will propel Indiana to a historic 12-0 regular season.
