Gavin Wimsatt looked like a different player yesterday. Why? He’s more patient, seasoned and has an offense that’s designed to LITERALLY slow things down. Here’s Steve Politi’s column:

Rutgers defensive line coach Marquise Watson wasn't at SHI Stadium today due to what Greg Schiano called a 'health situation,' but the elite unit he molded made his presence felt by dominating Northwestern.

notebook from today's win, includes maybe one of the quotes of the year from Schiano. Regarding the eligibility of Naseim Brantley, Schiano said 'I’m about fuming; you could fry an egg on my head with that whole situation.'

Mohamed Toure came in for that third-down rush. That's his first appearance since missing all of last season with a knee injury. Pressure came from DE Wesley Bailey.

Impressive first drive for OC Kirk Ciarrocca. That looked very Minnesota-esque. Two beautiful throws from Gavin Wimsatt: The fourth-down conversion and TD.

Here's the availability report. Aaron Young surprisingly out while Sam Brown is questionable. Expecting to see a lot of Kyle Monangai.
