Sunday Ruminations – #ILLINI -The old saying is 'you get better or worse never stay the same" Illinois improved their effort from last week

Sunday Ruminations #ILLINI Great 2 hear T Hawthorne appears 2 b ok Can't remember seeing as many injuries as this yr-becoming more dangerous

Sunday Ruminations – #Hoosiers – Another very good effort – Overall much improved offensively but as been its history defense lags behind.

Sunday Ruminations – #Hoosiers – Philosophical challenge? Playing their way of offense helps them against MSU but hurts them vs. Ball St.

Sunday Ruminations – #Wolverines – Didn't think they were a top 10 team in preseason but now I think they are the best team in the Legends
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations #Wolverines – Tough non-con Alabama/ND – Perfect time for bye week, improving defense, Denard stay healthy = Indianapolis

Sunday Ruminations – #Spartans – Biggest difference in this MSU team from previous M.D teams – this one doesn't appear hungry for success
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations #Spartans – Will be hard for MSU to all of sudden turn it up the next 4 weeks Iowa Mich Wis Neb – these 4 improving
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations #Huskers Not best time 4 bye week – 2 much time for drama with no game to talk about – good time to get on road 2 recruit
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations #Huskers Biggest difference between Braxton and Taylor OSU uses Braxton's legs first arm 2nd Neb uses TM arm 1st legs 2nd

Sunday Ruminations #Northwestern Had 2 b emotionally ready for 4 of 1st 5 because of difficulty of schedule does it take its toll in October
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations – #Northwestern – Does a more difficult non-conf than most of the B1G make it harder to have a good October? Do #'s lie?
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations – #Buckeyes If Braxton stays healthy OSU wins the Leaders and could keep Michigan from Indy
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations #Pennstate 4 -2 into bye week What a great job BOB/Staff & Team have done Appears moral/chemistry their greatest strength
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations #Pennstate -Hopefully they can make progress in recruiting during bye week even with all restrictions – don't doubt them
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations #Purdue – Bad day yesterday but when you look at remainder of schedule they matchup personnel wise with 6 of last 7
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations – #Purdue – Burn yesterday's game video – move on
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations – #Badgers – Have to respect them for how hard they are playing even though they got off to a slower than expected start
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations – #Badgers Fairly balanced this week run/pass – Helps the O Line which certainly hasn't been dominate – Kept ILL on heals
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations – #Badgers – winner of this weeks UW/Purdue game most likely goes to Indy because of tie breaker being head to head
— Gerry DiNardo (@gerrydinardo) October 7, 2012
Sunday Ruminations – #Badgers – You could make a strong case that UW has improved every week especially on offense In hunt for Indy for sure

Sunday Ruminations #Pennstate 4 -2 into bye week What a great job BOB/Staff & Team have done Appears moral/chemistry their greatest strength
