    IU defeats Purdue in the Governor’s Cup for a fourth straight year

    Mike SchumannBy IU Athletics 2 Comments

    For the fourth straight year, IU Athletics can claim overall superiority over Purdue.

    Indiana holds a massive 11.5 to 4.5 edge over the Boilermakers in the annual Governor’s Cup competition with just four points left to be determined through the end of the 2022-23 academic year.

    Highlighting the win for Indiana were basketball sweeps by both the Hoosier men and women.

    Since 2001-02, the two schools have conducted an all-sports competition. It originally was known as the Titan Series until 2004, when it was renamed the Crimson & Gold Cup. It became the Governor’s Cup in 2013.

    Points are awarded to the winning team in each of the schools’ 20 shared sports. If the two teams do not meet during the regular season, the higher finisher at the Big Ten Championships is the point winner. In the case of ties, both teams get half a point.

    Since Indiana’s elite sport is men’s soccer, the competition has put IU at a bit of a disadvantage as Purdue doesn’t field a men’s soccer team. But that hasn’t prevented Indiana from pulling out to a significant all-time lead with a recent run of dominance.

    In 22 years of competition, IU now holds a 12-7 advantage. Two years have ended in a tie.  The 2019-20 competition was declared a no-contest, although Indiana was leading 9-4 when all sports were canceled.
