It's basketball after all, sure Oregon came into the matchup arguably the worst shooting team in the Big Ten, and they were able to make some big shots down the stretch. Michigan State's misses at the free throw line down the stretch are what ultimately hurt them, but Ayrault's leadership was a huge point made by Robyn Fralick following the loss. The loss hurts, but they are still right in the thick of the top five race in the Big Ten, and with a road trip to a struggling Northwestern team this weekend, they can easily bounce back.
