MU Shooting Sinks Streak, USF wins 57-56
Written by: hilltopper91@gmail.com (Kevin Buckley (Hilltopper))
Marquette's perfect Big East record disappeared with a thud, with a loss to the victory challenged USF Bulls, 57-56.
Marquette shot a miserable 38% from the field, a horrible 16% (4-24) from 3-point land, and a galacticly bad 43% from the charity stripe.
Amazingly, MU had a chance to win it, but missed two close-up shots to end the game.
My lucky shirt is no longer lucky, I am irritated, and am mailing this post-game report in.
MU travels to Villanova on Tuesday.
