OK, the 8 seed shows a lack of respect. Given, we a very tough first round game with MSU. And winning would put us up against UNC on (virtually) their home court.
Now that I have rehashed all of the whining from the past 5 days, let me tell you why I love our draw. More attention on our program/game over the last 5 days in the national media. A chance to knock off a "big-time" program in the first round. National attention on our prime time game tonight. A chance for the 'student' to become the 'teacher'...furthering the national attention into the weekend. And a chance to stick it to a #1 seed in front of all their baby-blue clad fans.
My glass is half full!
GO MARQUETTE!!!!!!!!
