Indiana, ranked #2, seeks a historic 12-0 season and a Big Ten Championship Game appearance in their upcoming game against Purdue. Coach Curt Cignetti emphasizes total focus on Purdue, respecting their recent competitive performances despite their 0-8 record. The team is refreshed after a bye week and is focused on the game ahead. Cignetti is guarding against complacency, citing the 1989 Old Oaken Bucket game where a heavily favored Indiana team lost to Purdue, derailing their season and Heisman hopes for Anthony Thompson. Cignetti’s focus is preventing history from repeating itself.
