With the B1G in general, Illinois, Illinois, and Wisconsin looked slower than high majors and couldn't score against lower-ranked teams. OSU and MSU held with top 10 teams for 30 minutes then both fell off. Rutgers was gassed late against an ACC team. Indiana couldn't defend St. Mary's.
Michigan is the only team that played above its ability. Purdue may do well later tonight, but it seems like the B1G isn't as athletic as other conferences and isn't as good against non-B1G offenses as it should be.
