EVANSTON, Ill., Nov. 8 (UPI) -- Terrelle Pryor and Chris Wells had a hand in five touchdowns Saturday , helping 12th-ranked Ohio State roll over No. 25 Northwestern 45-10.

Wells ran for two first-quarter touchdowns, one for 55 yards, and finished with 140 yards on 28 carries.

Pryor, the highly regarded freshman quarterback, threw for three others and completed 9-of-14 passes for 197 yards. He added 33 yards on six rushes.

Wide receiver Brian Robiskie caught two scoring passes, while running back Daniel Herron scored once for the Buckeyes (8-2, 5-1 Big Ten), who bounced back from a tough 13-9 loss to Penn State Oct. 25, their last outing.

Robiskie has caught a pass in 34 straight games.

Quarterback Mike Kafka went 18-for-27 for 177 yards and an interception, and also scored on a one-yard first quarter run among 83 yards on 29 carries for the Wildcats (7-3, 3-3), losers in two of their last three contests.
