Well, that was fun.
Ohio State wasted no time in absolutely obliterating Purdue. The Buckeyes scored touchdowns on their first six drives and added a field goal just before the half on their second to take a 45-7 lead into the break.
It was dominance from the start. Here are your first-half highlights.

JSN @jaxon_smith1 is so good that the @OhioStateFB WR should just go by his initials. pic.twitter.com/EQtVH9Pazv

No. 4 @OhioStateFB's offense is so scary. @GarrettWilson_V has his 2nd TD today, and it's 35-7 early in the 2Q. pic.twitter.com/fzRkaFu4iq

That's three first half TDs. pic.twitter.com/dr3E19B0ww
Ohio State will get the ball first in the second half, which will almost certainly feature plenty of reserve players.
