Marquette Breaks Seal - Beats UC on Road by 15Marquette wins quality game at Cincinnati, 75-60.
After another slow start that had Marquette down 9 after 16 minutes of play, a new player hit the court. While #41 Ousmane Barro has been on Marquette's roster all year, this Ousamane Barro was someone entirely different.
This Oooze was hitting shot after shot, going 9 for 10.
This Ooze was grabbing rebound after rebound, ending the game with 10.
This Ooze has been on the back of a milk carton, missing in action for a score of games.
An evil twin, perhaps? Maybe it was Ousmane "Barrow", as ESPN flashed on the screen several times.
Lazar Hayward also had a superlative game again, hitting 19 points for the second game in a row. In total, 4 MU players hit double figures, with Ooze, Lazar, Matthews and McNeal reaching. McNeal also dished off a whopping 7 assists.
Scott Christoperson sparked MU's run, as he entered the game and 5 seconds later, promptly hit this 3: (props to TallTitan)

The win gives MU a solid grip on 3rd place in the Big East, with a 6-3 record. Half the BE season is now complete. Marquette will head into Monday's showdown with Louisville with some good mo-jo.
