Don’t hold your breath waiting for a war of words between Indiana’s Tom Allen and Purdue’s Jeff Brohm to get you fired up for this weekend’s Old Oaken Bucket game.  There will be no Harbaugh-Meyer like barbs exchanged through the media. Whatever hatred is felt by Indiana fans toward Purdue, and vice versa, that sentiment isn’t shared by the coaches towards one another. And that is despite what seems like every opportunity for some bad blood to have been generated at some point over the last five years.  Both coaches took over their respective programs for the 2017 season, both…

Indiana continued to take care of business in impressive fashion on Tuesday night as it mowed through another mid-major at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall in Bloomington.
