QuoteMarquette is a Jesuit school in Wisconsin known for strict underage drinking policies and freezing winters.

Not sure what this is supposed to be referring to (the first part).

Not impending - read the comment section.

Some awesome fan from 'Cuse stood up for us.  She said if Wiscy had shot better than 24%, then they'd be on the list as well.
