Ohio State’s offense was rolling through the Michigan State defense in the first half. The Buckeyes went into halftime up 35-13.

The Ohio State offense had 429 total yards of offense in a dominant first half in East Lansing. Many fans made their case for Ohio State to be the No. 1 ranked team in the country after how the Buckeyes played.

Ohio State came into the game against Michigan State ranked No. 3 after a 5-0 start to the year.

Just to show how dominant Ohio State has been over Michigan State in the last couple of meetings, the Buckeyes have scored 84 points in the last two first halves versus the Spartans.

The Buckeyes put up 49 points in the first half of last year’s game. It’s starting to look like Ryan Day’s team is going to have another easy game in East Lansing. Ohio State is well on its way to winning seven straight against Michigan State.

Here are the reactions to the first half performance on social media:
