No. 6 Villanova 78, MU 76
Villanova, Pa. -- Another Big East game, another heartbreaking loss for the Marquette Golden Eagles.
Battling back from a 22-point deficit midway through the second half to get into position to take the final shot to win the game in the closing seconds, MU once again came up short. The result was a 78-76 loss to the No. 6-ranked Villanova Wildcats -- their second by just two points in a week -- at The Pavilion on Saturday afternoon.
Factor in MU's first two losses last week in league play, and it has lost three of its four games in Big East play to ranked opponents by a total of five points.
