Duke topped Indiana in an exciting Pinstripe Bowl that ended with some controversy.
The final score read 44-41 in favor of the Blue Devils, who got a 36-yard field goal from Ross Martin in the first overtime.
Indiana failed to get a first down on its ensuing possession, but the Hoosiers had to like their chances of going to a second overtime with Big Ten Kicker of the Year Griffin Oakes lining up for a 38-yarder.
