Freshman Jared Sullinger 30 points, a career-high 19 rebounds and showed his range by hitting a 30-foot bank shot at the first-half buzzer to lead No. 2 Ohio State past South Carolina 79-57 on Saturday.

William Buford added 12 points and Jon Diebler 11 for the Buckeyes (10-0), who expected one of their biggest tests of the young season but dominated throughout.

Sam Muldrow scored 14 points and Malik Cooke 13 for South Carolina (7-2).
