COL FB: Ohio State 37, Michigan 7

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 27 (UPI) -- Terrelle Pryor's two touchdown passes carried No. 7 Ohio State to a 37-7 win over Michigan Saturday and a share of the Big Ten championship.

Pryor was 18-of-27 for 220 yards in the air and also racked up 49 yards on the ground to give the Buckeyes (11-1, 7-1 Big Ten) their seventh consecutive win over arch-rival Michigan (7-5, 3-5) and a share of the conference championship with Michigan State and Wisconsin -- if the Badgers beat Northwestern later in the day.

Ohio State erupted for 24 points in the second quarter after a scoreless first quarter to take a 24-7 lead. They scored 14 unanswered points in the third quarter while shutting the Wolverines out in the second half.

Denard Robinson connected on 8-of-18 passes for just 87 yards and carried the ball 18 times for 105 yards for the Wolverines. His play was limited in the second half because of an injury to his left hand.
