In the upset of the century, 36-0 (UWM) killed Mbakwe (Mbakwe doesn't die he simply takes on an existential form and waits for the time to be right and repopulate the earth with his seed to make things "Mbakwe").  This defeat was significant and probably broke a lot of brackets.  But now the upstarts are going against the walking boot meme, which is not surprisingly in a walking boot from a precautionary standpoint after walking over GTST.  The question is, who wins this round?

Walking boot
Marquette players since 2000 have had a propensity to injure legs and feet(Chris Otule and Dan Fitzgerald being the leads), resulting in their being placed in walking boots.  Sometimes players that no one had any idea were injured would be spotted on campus with a walking boot on, this included players who would then play in a game that night.  This led to the often repeated walking boot meme when any player was thought to be injured or even struggling with classes.  It has been speculated that MU has a discount deal with a boot supplier.

36-0 (UWM)
One of my personal favorite memes, this one celebrates the complete dominance of crosstown "rival" UW-Milwaukee by Marquette basketball.  Marquette has never lost to UWM with a 36-0 record, which is something a lot of people like to hold over the UWM heads....especially when they get lippy making the tournament once every 7 years.  In the mid-2000s UWM made a lot of noise of restarting the "rivalry" which eventually happened for 3 games, not shockingly, all MU victories.

 Marquette leads the all-time series 39-0.
