What's different for Marquette
Not too much. The first round opponent is Drexel instead of VCU, as the Dragons have won 21 of 22 since a 2-4 start en route to taking the lead in the CAA. A Sweet 16 run could mean a meeting with Purdue instead of Cal, though both would take upsets. The biggest changes in the Southeast came in the top-half of the bracket, where Gonzaga moves up to St. Mary's 5-seed while UNLV drops to a 4-seed, replacing Wichita State.
