COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 23 (UPI) -- Antonio Pittman rushed for 110 yards and the Buckeyes scored on two fourth-quarter interceptions Saturday as top-ranked Ohio State beat Penn State, 28-6.
Troy Smith completed 12-of-22 passes for 115 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions for the Buckeyes (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten), who ran their winning streak to 11 games.
The Nittany Lions bested the Buckeyes 17-10 last year to hand Ohio State its only Big Ten loss of the season. Penn State was then beaten by Michigan in its following game to end its undefeated run, and the Lions and Buckeyes eventually ended the season as conference co-champions.
Tony Hunt rushed for 135 yards on 24 carries for the Nittany Lions (2-2, 0-1), who haven't won in Columbus since joining the Big 10 in 1993.
Anthony Morelli had just 106 yards on 16-of-25 passing with three interceptions.
