The game at Thompson-Boling Arena saw the Ohio State Buckeyes take control early on, outscoring the home team in each quarter. The visitors put up 20 points in both the first and third quarters and peaked with 23 points in the second quarter before closing out with 15 points in the fourth. On defense, they were just as formidable, limiting their opponents to fewer than their own lowest-scoring quarter throughout all four periods.
