The bad is pretty obvious: we were already a weak rebounding team even when we had Ajogbor healthy, but without him we’re just horrific.
The good is we showed a lot of character coming back from double digits in that second half even when, in Mack’s case, shots really hadn’t been falling for him before that. The way he shook off his earlier struggles to knock down that 3 when we were up 2 with a minute left would have been pretty impressive for anyone, let alone someone a month into their career.

Agreed. Rebounding was pitiful. Overall, a really frustratingly bad game for us. I kept thinking we should be beating this team and, eventually, Mack and Okpara found their openings and took control.
Hoping to watch Seth Towns this evening on ESPN at Penn.
If anything, I'm rooting for Justice (to heal).

Loyola and Army focused on Mack, sending 2 and 3 defenders at him. Pigged and Lesmond are going to have to shoot well. When Wojcik is out there, it’s a problem. This is where we really miss Evan Nelson.
