We're 3-point underdogs. Here's what The Athletic's C.J. Moore had to say:
Providence at Marquette (-3), 9 p.m., FS1. Providence has just played two teams superior to Marquette close, losing by two to Creighton at home and then by one at Xavier on Sunday. The Friars are trending in the right direction. They're on a three-game ATS winning streak and a couple bounces away from being on a four-game winning streak. Marquette, meanwhile, has lost four of five and is in an offensive funk. That's worrisome because its defense in Big East play has been lousy. The Golden Eagles rank last in defensive efficiency in Big East games. Again, happy to take the points here. The pick: Providence
It should be noted that Moore is 24-26-1 as a prognosticator ... so I give him a 50-50 shot at being right. A clucking chicken has about the same odds of being right with its beak.
I actually feel good about this one. We're gonna win and start a nice little run.
We Are Marquette!
We're 3 point favorites.

D'oh! Thanks for the catch. I fixed the title to reflect that.
It doesn't change my thoughts -- we'll win by at least 3.
We STILL Are Marquette!
Lock of the week.
