COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Julian Sayin threw for four touchdowns, set an Ohio State record for completed passes to start a game and fell one short of the school record for consecutive completions as the top-ranked Buckeyes rolled to a 70-0 victory over Grambling State on Saturday.
Ohio State scored on eight of its first nine possessions and did not punt until midway through the fourth quarter. It was the ninth victory in school history by at least 70 points and sixth via shutout.
Two of those wins have now come against historically Black colleges or universities. The Buckeyes beat Florida A&M 76-0 in 2013.
Sayin completed his first 16 passes and finished 18 of 19 for 306 yards, all in the first half. The sophomore broke Will Howard’s mark of 13 straight completions to start a game.
