Looking at that list of Howard's high scoring games in his career -- those were almost all high-major, big time games. And mostly victories too.

We are 16-0 when he scores 20+

4-4 when he doesn't.

According to Saturday's telecast at least.

Just checked, and that is correct.

Undefeated this year when Markus goes scoreless.

Good article, though "inevitable" in the quote below is a pretty strong word to describe the circumstances at the end of the game. Not to say I wasn't worried at that point that it may slip away, but "inevitable"??

"Marquette led 66-65, but it was winning time for No. 14 Villanova, the defending national champion, which had the ball in the hands of the ultimate winner -- fifth-year senior guard Phil Booth. Villanova is 155-20 when Booth plays. Another tick on the left side of the ledger seemed inevitable for a Wildcats team riding a program-record 10-0 start to Big East play. Also inevitable, a second straight one-point, final-possession home loss for No. 10 Marquette. Especially when Booth turned the corner with six seconds left."

Is Marquette a better team without Markus?

No, just pointing out a statistical quirk.
