I did not watch the game, but after talking to my dad who did (this was his first time watching them this season), he said they were a tad sloppy at times, but they looked well coached.

He liked the freshmen, but thinks (like majority of people) that they will get killed by some bigger Big Ten teams.

They rebounded well against the first team that had a height advantage against them. Tate grabbed 13 and I think the team total was 35-28 or so.

The biggest weakness that I see on this team is an inside presence on defense.

Pluses: Tucker is a really good shooter. Gatens does everything well (but not quite as well as Shon Morris thinks that he does - I think Shon wants to have his baby), Offense is MUCH better organized than last season (due to Freeman's departure and Peterson's maturity?), overall the freshmen showed good poise.
