COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 22 (UPI) -- Terrelle Pryor threw two touchdown passes and Chris Wells ran for one Saturday, helping 10th-ranked Ohio State roll to a 42-7 win over archrival Michigan.

Pryor completed just 5-of-13 passes for 120 yards and one interception.

Wells scored on a 5-yard run in the first quarter and finished with 134 yards on 15 carries.

Daniel Herron scored on a 49-yard sprint in the third quarter and finished with 80 yards on eight carries.

The Buckeyes' offense piled up 416 yards while their defense limited Michigan to only 198 total yards as Ohio State (10-2, 7-1 Big Ten) earned a share of the conference title for the fourth season in a row with the lopsided victory in the annual grudge match.

Brandon Minor scored Michigan's lone touchdown on a 1-yard second quarter run. He gained 67 yards on 14 carries for the Wolverines (3-9, 2-6), who ended Coach Rich Rodriguez's first season at Ann Arbor with their fifth straight loss to Ohio State

Quarterback Dick Sheridan was just 8-of-24 for 87 yards.
