Recap: Ohio State 49, Purdue 0
Oct 23, 2010
Terrelle Pryor threw for 271 yards and three touchdowns and Daniel Herron ran for two scores, as No. 10 Ohio State bounced back from its first lost of the season with a 49-0 demolition of Purdue on Saturday.
Jordan Hall added a rushing touchdown and Dane Sanzenbacher led the receiving corps with 88 yards and a score for the Buckeyes, who squandered the No. 1 ranking last weekend in a loss at Wisconsin.
Ohio State reached the end zone on each of its first three possessions by starting off on the ground with Herron, who rushed six times for 60 yards and scored on runs of 11 and 3 yards.
Pryor threw two touchdown passes of 22, 7 and 15 yards on consecutive drives in the second quarter, as the Buckeyes took a 42-0 lead into the half.
The defense certainly did its job as well, holding the Boilermakers to just 115 yards - 28 on the ground - and forcing three turnovers.
