Five things we think we can take away from the win against Minnesota that could carryover to the Michigan game next week. #GoBucks

And now it’s on.

Ohio State has set up a huge matchup with Michigan next week after more than taking care of business against the Minnesota Golden Gophers inside the Horseshoe on Saturday evening. It was a bit of a slow start for the offense, but then things heated up in the second half and the Buckeyes won going away, 37-3.

It can be a little knee-jerky, and really, at this point in the season, what are we really still learning, but there are some things to take from the win over Minnesota and project ahead to the big one in Ann Arbor next week.

Here are five things we think we learned after Ohio State’s impressive win over the Golden Gophers Saturday.
