Ohio State was able to beat Rutgers 49-27, but the second half was an absolute disaster for the Buckeyes.

Ohio State started out the first half a little slowly, only scoring 7 points in the first quarter. In fact, they only led 7-3 after one quarter. Then the offense got going in the second quarter and exploded for 28 points.
