COL FB: Ohio State 52, Minnesota 10

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 31 (UPI) -- Terrelle Pryor passed for two touchdowns and ran for a third Saturday and No. 10 Ohio State punished Minnesota 52-10.

Pryor was 18-of 22 for 222 yards passing for the Buckeyes (8-1, 4-1 Big Ten), who rolled over the Gophers for the 24th time in 25 meetings.

Dan Herron racked up 114 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries and DeVier Posey hauled down six passes for 115 yards and a touchdown for Ohio State.

Hapless Minnesota (1-8, 0-5), which jettisoned Tim Brewster as its coach after six losses, dropped its eighth in a row. Adam Weber completed 9-of-20 passes for 162 yards and was intercepted once in the latest setback with Jeff Horton as interim coach.
