COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Now that the appetizers have been served up, No. 3 Ohio State can finally move on to the main course.
The Buckeyes' three-game slate of tuneup games ended with a 49-14 rout of Marshall on Saturday. The Thundering Herd found ways to exploit the Ohio State defense early but couldn't keep up with its cadre of offensive stars.
Now it's nothing but Big Ten opponents the rest of the way for the Buckeyes.
Ohio State outscored Akron, Western Michigan and Marshall 107-20. The Buckeyes should get a better idea of where they stand in a prime-time game against Michigan State next Saturday and more challenging matchups down the road.
