Marquette moved behind Seton Hall but is in the Should Be In Section
Marquette Golden Eagles
Marquette's defense has struggled to defend the interior over the back half of the Big East season. Conference opponents have converted 55 percent of their 2-point attempts during this current 3-5 stretch for the Golden Eagles. That trend continued in Marquette's 91-80 loss at DePaul. The Blue Demons hit 56 percent of their 2s (and 91 percent of their free throws) in a game that dropped Shaka Smart's team to 10-8 in Big East play. MU might still earn a No. 8 seed as expected, but that will require better defense both at home against St. John's and in the Big East tournament. (updated Mar. 3)

If anyone is concerned about MU's seeding or bubble position, MSU, Michigan, Oregon and TCU all lost tonight.

Ashton Gibbs picked Marquette as a 4 seed or worse to make the Final 4 in the most recent Field of 68 After Dark episode.

Around the 50 minute mark. https://youtu.be/19kAWWLWi1M

Also some talk about Marquette having the best jerseys.

MSU has lost 7 of their last 9. MU not alone with late season struggles.

But their struggles are easily explained by a letter writing campaign by Joey. What's our excuse?

Good point. That's a problem.

Most years I wouldn't say this, but MSU might not be a bad first round matchup for us.  They struggle against pressure D and turn the ball over at an epic clip.  They also are allergic to rebounding, much like us.  Plus the Joey story...I think almost every one of their fans would like to send him right back where he came from.

Have these people been watching the games?  Or, were they heavily drinking while watching the games?

Maybe the people picking MU to win
the BET ( lol ) have not had electricity over the last 3 or 4 weeks, and no TV

I know I have been

You can slur that again!

Lunardi now has us a number 8 playing in Ft. Worth.  It's great because I will be at the new Dickies Arena for the games.  It's not so great that Baylor would be the second round opponent and Waco is an hour and a half away.  Baylor would more than likely deliver a shellacking of MU in front of its frenzied fans sitting next to me.  I really hope MU can grab a 7 in another region at this point, even though I'd love to watch the team live and in person.

Marquette wouldn't get blown out by Baylor.  They are only 6 guys deep right now and have limited size.  Marquettes depth would keep the game close.

You say this as you predict MU to lose at home to St. John's...

Marquette

Looks like Joey Hauser is a loser

If Joey knocks Marquette out of the tournament, I'm writing a letter.
