COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - It took five big plays to give Ohio State an unprecedented fifth straight win over rival Michigan.

Noted Wolverines nemesis Chris "Beanie" Wells had two of those, including a 59-yard touchdown run and 134 yards rushing to help the 10th-ranked Buckeyes beat their archrivals 42-7 Saturday, the first time in 105 meetings that they've strung together five wins.

Ohio State's margin was its biggest since Woody Hayes was prowling and growling on the sidelines in a 50-14 rout in 1968.

Freshman phenom Terrelle Pryor threw two TD passes to Brian Hartline, and Dan Herron ran for two more scores to give the Buckeyes (10-2, 7-1) their third win in a row and a share of their fourth straight Big Ten title.
