It was likely hard to get excited to play a 1-7 Purdue squad after three straight games decided in the fourth quarter but Ohio State showed up with more than enough juice to throttle the Boilermakers, 45-0, yesterday afternoon in Ohio Stadium.
The defense did its part recording a shutout for the second time this season, the first time that's happened since 2014.
On offense, quarterback Will Howard threw for 260 yards and three scores while completing 81% of his throws. He added a touchdown on the ground before giving way to backups Devin Brown and Julian Sayin.
