All went according to plan (with most fitting predictions above). Purdue’s loss to Rutgers allowed iu to finish dead last in its Big Ten division (the one without a national contender), while Purdue finished third best in the West (the home to unbeaten Wisconsin) after Purdue remained competitive against each and every opponent all season -- at least partly thanks to the growth from playing a competitive non-conference schedule.
For iu to become bowl eligible after scheduling and playing two substandard sized and absolutely pathetic programs in non-conference, it would have been just Simmie Cobbs … (criminal).
