In case you missed it:

Deadspin has a smart analysis of tomorrow's matchup.  Key excerpt:

More Dominic James Melodrama The oft-maligned Dominic James was Marquette's most important player, despite Doug Gottlieb-esque 46% free throw shooting. In his absence, opponents are shooting 49% and point guards are pouring in nearly 20 ppg. Watch how Marquette's defense holds up, particularly Maurice Acker, against dribble penetration and fighting through high screens. Marquette will rarely go over a high screen, increasing their vulnerability to a hot shooting guard (paging A.J. Price).

• Everybody loves an underdog -- and Utah State is getting plenty of love in brackets around the country.  Many folks agree.
• The new reality --  Backcourt duo leads Marquette into battle on Friday.
• Bald Eagles ready for the NCAA tourney.
• The MU Trib is blogging from Boise.
