COLUMBUS, Ohio — “The Game” is getting awfully one-sided.

Jordan Hall broke the game open with an 85-yard kickoff return and No. 8 Ohio State’s defense stymied high-powered Michigan 37-7 on Saturday, stretching the Buckeyes’ mastery in “The Game” to seven straight wins.

The Buckeyes (11-1, 7-1) picked up two celebration penalties after touchdowns but had a lot to celebrate: A share of a record-tying sixth Big Ten title and, most likely, a Bowl Championship Series bowl berth.

Terrelle Pryor had two TD passes and Dan “Boom” Herron finished with 175 yards on 22 carries.

It was another stumble for Michigan (7-5, 3-5) under coach Rich Rodriguez, now 0-3 against the Buckeyes and just 15-21 overall with the Wolverines.

Herron ran 98 yards for a score that was disallowed and shortened to an 89-yard gain because of a holding penalty as he neared the end zone.

Michigan’s sterling quarterback, Denard Robinson, was hampered by an injured left (non-throwing) hand. He played little more than a half, running for 105 yards on 18 attempts and completing 8 of 18 passes for 87 yards. He came into the game second nationally in total offense at 343 yards a game.

The crowd serenaded the Buckeyes with “We Don’t Give A Damn For the Whole State of Michigan” throughout the final quarter, long after the outcome had been decided…..
