Coen Carr's performance for Michigan State against Arkansas marked a turning point where he realized he can no longer just fit in, emphasizing the importance of establishing a team identity centered on defense and personal growth.
Michigan State's defense faltered in their 77-70 loss to Nebraska, allowing the Huskers to shoot 50% from the floor and score 30 points in the paint. Despite some offensive improvements, including a strong performance from Malik Hall, the Spartans couldn't overcome their defensive struggles. Jaden Akins showed promise with timely scoring and solid defense, while Coen Carr displayed improved shot creation. However, MSU's freshman guard Jeremy Fears Jr. had a rough game, committing turnovers and struggling defensively.
Freshman forward Coen Carr could see an increased role for Michigan State basketball following his impressive performance in the team's season-opening loss to James Madison.

Izzo hinted at potential lineup changes and expressed his satisfaction with the performance of the team's freshmen.
